Why Our Mission Matters
- According to the World Health Organization one-in-seven, or 200 million, adolescents worldwide experience a mental disorder.
- Emotional Intelligence (EQ) – the ability to recognize, understand, manage, and use emotions effectively – is known to be one of the best ways of preventing mental health issues.

- Emotional Intelligence makes children resilient, adaptable, empathic and confident to name but a few of the benefits.
- Equiped with these skills children are better able to cope through dark times, build healthy social connections, be successful and ultimately lead more fulfilling and joyful lives.
Introducing EQJOY

- The card games are supported by Emotion Explorer Guides which take children on a journey to discover and master the power of emotions.
- We partner with an incredible group of charities to ensure that children in great need get the opportunity to develop their EQ skills
- In addition to providing our charity partners with packs of EQJOY games for free, we also provide them with EQJOY Workshop Guides and other supporting materials to ensure that the children they serve have the best opportunity to become Masters of EQ.
