Kooth - Parent/Carer Guidance

This guidance was designed by Kooth, which is a free and safe well-being service. They have put together this useful guide for parents and carers to help recognise when a child or young person is struggling with a mental illness. 

The guidance is developed by Kooth's clinical team and will help parents and carers better understand and be aware of the warning signs of mental illness as well as signposting to organisations that can provide support. There are also tips on how to best support your child's mental and emotional health, and advice for starting a conversation with them about mental health.
