stem4
Description
stem4 are transforming young people’s mental health through accessible, NHS approved digital tools.
One in four young adults have a mental health disorder and over 270,000 children are on NHS waiting lists. stem4 have developed apps that provide immediate support. 93% of users of their Clear Fear app report reduced anxiety. Clear Fear is an individual-use app, but stem4 have developed Clear Fear for Schools (CFS) – a programme incorporating psychoeducation and resources to reduce anxiety across entire schools, rather than one pupil at a time. To take CFS nationally, they need to run a 12-month pilot to demonstrate impact, but they lack the resources.
stem4 will use our funding to run the pilot. With the proof of concept, they’ll be able to scale CFS nationally and move from an organisation dependent on grants to one with a confident, earned-income model.
