Nip in the Bud® Podcast - The children's mental health health charity

This episode shares a conversation with co-founder of Nip in the Bud, Kitty Nabarro.
Kitty co-founded Nip in the Bud together with her husband Daniel in 2015 and is the Chair and administrator of the charity. Previously Kitty worked as a teacher of modern languages in secondary schools and adult education. After retiring from the classroom she became an active volunteer for OCD Action, with particular focus on the OCD at School programme, giving awareness talks prepared by the Maudsley Hospital.

In 2023 Kitty’s outstanding voluntary work and commitment to promoting a greater awareness of Children’s Mental Health was recognised by the Prime Minister with a Points of Light Award.
Our conversation today tells of how the mental health charity was formed, and the personal journey of Kitty and her family that lead to creating this charity. Kitty shares her first hand experience as a mother of a child with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). She explains the changes that have come about since her daughter was in school and how the eventual diagnosis impacted on their lives.
Listen for information on the children's mental health charity Nip in the bud and for signposting towards help around obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) as well as other mental health and neurodivergent conditions such as ADHD, Autism, PTSD, Anxiety and Depression.
