Children and Young People's Services

Our children and young people's services offer a range of physical health, mental health, and learning disability and autism services designed improve the lives of children and young people and provide support for their families and care givers.

Our children and young people's mental health services provide a range of assessments, services, and treatments for young people with emotional, behavioural, or mental health difficulties. We support young people facing a variety of challenges, including depression, anger, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety and self-harm, among others. Our aspiration is to provide integrated care that wraps around the whole family and provides better outcomes, reducing long-term reliance on adult services. Our children and young people's physical health provide community nursing services and school and youth health services, offering services such as children's physio, school immunisations and vaccines, community respite provision and specialist school nursing teams. The children and young people's learning disability and autism services provide neurodevelopment support, community learning disability teams and community respite provision.
