Parents and carers
Information for Parents and Carers
We are here to help support children, young people and their families deal with issues they may be having trouble dealing with.
You may have noticed a change in your child’s behaviour over time or that they have always struggled in certain situations. You may have a good idea of what's causing them to behave this way, or not at all. It can be a stressful time for everyone in the family, and you may not know how to deal with the situation.
Regardless of your situation, it could help to tell someone you trust or ask for support. We are here to help.
