These four students have created an app to help teenagers talk about being bullied and get access to counselling.<\/p>\n
For Me was originally a school project but the NSPCC’s Childline has turned it into reality.<\/p>\n
“I hope that young people now realise they have somewhere to go,” one of the creators, Laura Hindle, tells Newsbeat.<\/p>\n
The app features a private “locker” area where users get a daily mood tracker and can write down their thoughts.<\/p>\n
It also lets users chat with a counsellor.<\/p>\n
