"Ollee is a virtual friend for children aged 8-11, available via a web app. It was created by Parent Zone and is funded by BBC Children in Need’s A Million & Me initiative, which aims to make a difference to children’s emotional wellbeing.Â
Ollee is designed to help parents do something they do naturally and as a matter of course: support their children.Â
It’s a tool they can turn to for support before issues escalate and that will help them start what can be a tricky conversation. Even an incremental enhancement of that support will make a massive difference to children’s mental health."
