About Thrive Academy

The Who, What and Why...

Where we begin...

At Thrive Academy we want young people’s wellbeing to flourish. We strongly believe that to do this, education is needed to increase their digital resilience.  

We recognise that while Thrive Academy would be a welcome addition to any schools’ personal development programme, some schools do not have the funds to pay for this service. To that end, Thrive Academy has been set up as a social enterprise, relying on donations, sponsorship, and funding from businesses large and small to pay for the education programmes for those unable to afford our services. If you are a business owner and would like to help your local community to thrive online, then please contact us.

The Founder of Thrive Academy, Dr. Deborah Webster studied social media and adolescent mental wellbeing for her doctoral research. She has a background in teaching and safeguarding and is an experienced public speaker and trainer. If you think Thrive Academy can help you, your school or organisation then please get in touch.
