Sustained, Systemic Resilience in Schools and Colleges

RESTA is a resilience and prevention framework created by psychologist Dr Esther Borrett.
We help organisations create environments where people and performance thrive.

RESTA has recently been awarded Wellbeing Resource of the Year at the Education Today Awards 2025! We feel incredibly honoured to have been recognised for our work, having been nominated alongside industry leaders.

Our mission

To build systems that prevent stress and burnout before they happen, not just respond to them afterward.
Through evidence-based, trauma-aware practice, we strengthen the environments that shape wellbeing, improving both individual outcomes and organisational performance.
