Finding Mental Health Advice and Support
Finding the right mental health support is important for children and their families, and there are many options available.
Every child should know that talking to a trusted adult is a great first step. This could be a parent, carer, family member, teacher, or family friend.
If you or your child are unsure who to talk to, organisations like Childline can help. Call them free on 0800 1111 for guidance and support.
Free digital services like Kooth.com offer online mental health and well-being support for children and young people.
