Welcome!

This A-Z guide aims to show the range of services from which help, advice and information may be sought about the mental health and emotional needs of children and young people. Most of the organisations listed support young people up to the age of 18.

The guide can be used by parents, carers and workers, but children and young people may also find it helpful.

We have defined mental health in its broadest sense in order to cover the spectrum of problems, for example from exam stress to more specific diagnosed mental illness.
