Young Minds were proud to recently launch their Parents Webchat service. If you need support looking after your child’s mental health, use our Parents Webchat to speak to directly to an advisor, who will direct you to the advice and information you may need.
The Webchat offers three different services to parents and carers who are concerned about their child’s mental health, up to the age of 25.
Here, you can find out more about the Parents Helpline, Email Service and Webchat.
