Children's Mental Health Week 1-7 February 2021

  • Place2Be The theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is Express Yourself. Expressing yourself is about finding ways to share feelings, thoughts, or ideas, through creativity. It is about finding a way to show who you are, and how you see the world, that can help you feel good about yourself. As parents and carers, you play an important role in your child’s mental health. Check out the free resources available on Place2Be by following the link.
  • Mind Ed for Families Things to think about before talking to your child and where you can turn for further support with your child's well-being or mental health.
  • Mind Corona Virus and Your Wellbeing
  • CAMHS Children and Adult Mental Health Service - a central pool of resources, websites and apps from across the Internet to support mental wellbeing
