Thousands of children and young people were helped this year by our range of services and our free and confidential Parents’ Helpline continues to be a lifeline for many parents worried about a child or teenagers behaviour.

    There is still a huge stigma around mental health which means children and young people are not getting the support they need. Disruptive, difficult, withdrawn and disturbed kids need to be supported and not just ignored and told off. Help us to help children and young people lead happy and productive lives. 

    Please come and visit us at the Marylebone Christmas Lights event and help support our fantastic charity.
