This week, Place2Be, the founders of Children's Mental Health Week have put together a whole host of useful resources to support young people. There is a superb section on their website for families, including some Top Tips. Take a look at how to connect for this year's theme. 

Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections. Human beings thrive in communities, and this connection is vital for our wellbeing. When we have healthy connections – to family, friends and others – this can support our mental health and our sense of wellbeing. And when our need for rewarding social connections is not met, we can sometimes feel isolated and lonely – which can have a negative impact on our mental health. 

As parents and carers, you play an important role in your child’s mental health. Check out free resources for families on the link below:
