Professional Resources Library

Practical resources to support your work

Welcome to the Cup-O-T Professional Resources Library, a growing collection of practical tools, guides and resources designed to support professionals working with young people, mental health and wellbeing.

We believe that sharing knowledge, developing confidence and making useful resources accessible can help us create better experiences and outcomes for the people we support.

Our resources draw on our experience across occupational therapy, youth mental health, trauma-informed practice, peer support and community-based approaches to wellbeing.

Whether you are looking for a practical tool to use in your work, guidance to support your professional development or new ideas to take back to your team, you’ll find resources to help you reflect, learn and put ideas into practice.

Explore our collection of free and paid resources, available as instant digital downloads.

Resources are accessed through the Cup-O-T Learning Collective. Each listing explains whether the resource is free or paid. You will be taken to the Learning Collective page to access, pay and download. Free downloads require an email address.

Learning that goes beyond a download

Our resources are part of a wider commitment to sharing knowledge and supporting the people who work with young people and communities.

Through the Cup-O-T Learning Collective, we offer opportunities to connect with others, explore ideas, access professional development and build confidence in your practice.

If you’re looking for more than a standalone resource, discover our courses, webinars and professional learning opportunities.

At Cup-O-T, training is more than just gaining knowledge – it’s about being part of a supportive learning community. Through our Cup-O-T Learning Collective platform, we combine high-quality, evidence-based training with spaces for connection, reflection and shared experience. By embedding training within a community, we create opportunities for real-world application, peer support, and ongoing growth long after the course has finished.
