How we began

How we began

Building Self-Belief CIO was created in April 2018 and formally launched by Sue Snowdon, the Lord Lieutenant of County Durham in November 2018. Since that date, we have significantly improved the mental health, self-esteem and life chances of thousands of vulnerable young people across the North East.

We have a multi-agency board of Trustees that includes highly experienced professionals. As a collective, we have a wide range of interests and expertise, but our common goal is our motivation in supporting people to find the strength of character to ensure they can live fruitful and happy lives.
