mental health
Working with Solihull CCG, the Council has commissioned a new resource in Solihull to support children and young people aged 11-25 years with their emotional and mental health and wellbeing.
The government is asking people for their views on a green paper setting out measures to improve mental health support for children and young people.
The green paper focuses on earlier intervention and prevention, especially in and linked to schools and colleges. To add your voice to the consultation process, please see the link below. You may wish to share this information more widely with parents/carers and where appropriate, pupils.
Young Minds have launched 360° Schools, your one-stop shop for mental health, well being and resilience for your whole school.
By joining our Young Minds 360° Schools’ Community, you will receive free tips, advice and handy resources straight into your inbox.
The aims of the sessions are to train pupils to offer support to their peers, and to help them in the creation and delivery of campaigns within school that reduce the stigma and discrimination around mental health. If your school is interested in developing a team of Mental Health Ambassadors, please contact Nicky Gilbert ngilbert@solihull.gov.uk or Gary Mcleod gmcleod@solihull.gov.uk from Engage. Please see flier attached below for further information.
