Hey there, I’m Charlie - your stress-busting buddy.

Well done! You’ve found the hiding place of one of my wee squidgy pals.

I enjoy travelling and visiting interesting places across Ayrshire - and beyond.

Wherever I go, I like to leave behind a little gift - like the stress ball you’ve just found!

(By the way, it’s yours to keep and squeeze whenever you need).

I know stress can be a lot to handle sometimes. That’s why I’m here - to remind you to take a deep breath, give your stress ball a squeeze, and know that you’re not alone.

Now, we both know that a quick squeeze might help ease the tension in the short term, but for life’s bigger stresses, it’s always better to get professional help.

That’s where CHAP comes in.
