The impact programme aims to support children across the UK through this tricky transition phase in their lives. It has dedicated £10million over three years to support innovative initiatives that it says can make a real difference to the emotional wellbeing of children aged 8-13, before emerging challenges require clinical intervention.

Newly arrived children often experience stigma, isolation, behavioural problems, school exclusions and difficulty forming positive relationships, says BBC Children in Need.

The Positive Youth Foundation plan to use the funding to help these youngsters form a sense of identity and belonging in the local community, build confidence and support the development of friendships while they find their own voice through representation, social campaigns, and a youth summit event.
