Have your say on children and young people's mental health

On the 4th December, the Government published a Green Paper outlining their plans for children and young people’s mental health services.
The proposals detailed in the paper aim to ensure those that need support are able to access the right help. It also includes introducing mental health support teams, focused on prevention and intervention, which are linked to groups of schools and colleges and a four-week waiting time target.
