Let’s Be Real
Mental Health for Young Minds
We’re changing the conversation around Mental Health in schools.
Empowering Students, Teachers, and Families.
We provide a English-language mental health literacy programme and Mental Health First Aid training for schools and families across Europe, equipping young people to handle stress, identity challenges, and social media pressures with confidence.
Our mission: Stronger, more connected communities through practical mental health education.
Childhood and adolescence are tougher than ever.
A mental health crisis is gripping our youth, with children and their parents navigating unprecedented pressures from a “phone-first” world.
Social media, identity struggles, and a sense of disconnection have left many without the tools to thrive.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Our mental health literacy programme empowers children, parents and teachers to build resilience, foster a sense of belonging, and embrace their authentic selves.
We also offer:
Certified Mental Health First Aid training for parents and educators
Well-being and resilience workshops tailored for children, teens and adults
Parent education sessions focused on mental health awareness and support
English-language programs, available both in-person and online.
Together, we can face the challenges of modern childhood with compassion, courage, and the practical tools needed to thrive in a digital world.

The Mental Health First Aider Course (Level 3) with Nick and the Let’s Be Real team was phenomenal. The content broadened my perspective on mental health and gave me the confidence to better support both staff and students. Nick’s delivery was passionate, authentic, and deeply empathetic. He created a safe space for open and honest conversations. I left feeling inspired, empowered, and truly equipped to make a difference. Thank you for the incredible work you do!

Internationalla Engelska Skolan Solna, Stockholm, Sweden
The two-day Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course with Let’s Be Real, led by Nick, provided an incredibly valuable experience. The MHFA training fits seamlessly into the framework that IES Solna is already implementing through our PMKB (Plan mot kränkande behandling och diskriminering) measures, including the FRIENDS and Det Syns Inte programs.
Nick’s engaging approach made important topics easy to understand and directly relevant to the school. The course provided useful tools and insights to help build a more supportive community for both students and staff, inspiring greater awareness and confidence in addressing mental health with care and empathy.
