The Children & Young People's thematic group around Emotional Health & Mental Wellbeing Group met this week.
The agenda included:
Ensuring the voice of children & young people are included in the Powys Mental Health Planning Partnership Board. This is a multi-agency board which plans services across the whole age range. Provision is currently made for adult service users, via the Stronger in Partnerships model, but young people, as yet have not been involved at this strategic level. Recommendations will be presented to the Mental Health Planning Partnership to support this.
Feedback from Xenzone, who provide counselling services on line and face to face highlighted that there are rising concerns about the levels of self-harm in South Powys.
The Domestic Abuse Forum have produced a number of short leaflets aimed at:
young mums
young women
young men
children experiencing domestic abuse
helping a friend
and abusers
The Family Information Service based with Powys County Council has a ready stock of them if your organisation would like to be able to hand them out to people.
