MWIA report summaries THE IMPACT OF ‘THE HAVEN PROJECT’ AT THE ACADEMY OF ST FRANCIS OF ASSISI ON MENTAL WELL-BEING Mental Well-being Impact Assessment (MWIA): Report Summary Helen West July 2009 Introduction A Mental Well-being Impact Assessment was carried out to look at the potential impacts of the Haven project group at the Academy of St Francis of Assisi upon mental well-being. Members of the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service run a weekly group, using a holistic approach to support asylum seeker, refugee, and other vulnerable pupils in their social and emotional development and education. This year, pupils from years 7, 8 and 9 have worked on a garden in the school grounds, and have taken part in group work to build their self-esteem and confidence. Mental Well-being Impact Assessment is a process that looks at the potential positive and negative effects of a project on mental well-being. It is used to develop recommendations to increase the benefits for those who are involved in the project, and plan ways of measuring these effects. This MWIA was commissioned by Liverpool Primary Care Trust. Aims To identify how the Haven project may affect the mental well-being of those involved. To identify ways to maximise the positive effects and minimise negative effects. To develop measures of mental well-being to see how the Haven project affects people. Mental Well-being Impact Assessment (MWIA) “Well-being is about being emotionally healthy, feeling able to cope with normal stresses, and living a fulfilled life. It can be affected by things like worries about money, work, your home, the people around you and the environment you live in. Your well-being is also affected by whether or not you feel in control of your life, feeling involved with people and communities, and feelings of anxiety and isolation.” (Coggins & Cooke, 2004). The Mental Well-being Impact Assessment toolkit (Coggins et al., 2007) helps to identify how the project has an impact on mental well-being by affecting people’s feelings of control, resilience, participation and inclusion. This is done by holding workshops for the people involved in the project. Two workshops were held for the Haven project. Three members of the Haven team, 5 teachers, and 3 other members of staff at the Academy came to the first workshop. 4 pupils, 1 member of the Haven team, and 1 other member of staff at the Academy came to the second workshop. People affected by the Haven project The researcher compiled a ‘community profile’, looking at the type of people in Kensington and Fairfield Ward, The Academy of St Francis of Assisi, and the Haven project. The people taking part in the first workshop identified that the people who would be affected by the project are: The Haven group Their families and friends The Haven team 19
