About Qcards ®
Qcards is a publishing house dedicated to producing card-based games and activities to enhance social and emotional well-being.
The “Q” in Qcards represents the personal qualities (or strengths, attributes, abilities) inherent in all of us. The particular mix of qualities we possess is what makes us unique. They help to form our individual personalities and inform our choices in life.
Our goal is to assist people to recognise and develop their individual qualities in order to attain their full potential in life. We aim to do this by providing fun and engaging ways to help people explore their inner selves and to develop new insights into achieving and maintaining a sense of personal well-being.
Qcards was established by John Veeken.
John trained as a psychiatric nurse and has over 25 years of professional experience in community based mental health care. He has also illustrated many children’s books and health and well-being publications. John illustrated the original Strength Cards, The Bears, Strength Cards for Kids, Views from the Verandah, Strengths in Teams and The I Can Monsters card sets for St Luke’s Innovative Resources.

Qcards trials and evaluates its products and actively seeks feedback from parents, families, teachers, psychologists and social workers prior to publication.
