School holidays can be a welcome break for some, but for other families it can mean a week without valuable support.

A quick guide has been created to support families in Surrey find the right mental health support. See their post for the download link.

To coincide with Children’s Mental Health Week, we’re launching a new Quick Guide to Mental Health Support.

Co-developed by partners across the Council, Surrey Heartlands Health and Care Partnership, and Mindworks Surrey, the guide is designed to help children, young people, and families in Surrey find the right mental health support. It provides a summary of key support options, including:

• Groups and one-to-one sessions
• Online and telephone support
• Crisis support and referral pathways
• Help for parents/carers around emerging issues, including gaming
• Support for young people worried about a friend.

You can download the guide here: https://orlo.uk/WRA5O
