Supports for Students over the Summer
The summer months are usually a fun, happy time for young people. However, should you feel that your child needs support over the holidays these are some suggestions of where to look for help:
- In case of emergency, first contact your GP. If necessary, the GP will make a referral to CAMHS. (Please note that CAMHS referrals can only be made by a GP.)
