Whole System Transformation of Mental Health Services for Children and Young People in Norfolk and Waveney

Rethink Partners have been commissioned jointly by the five Norfolk and Waveney CCGs and Norfolk County Council to review and help progress our approach to whole system transformation of mental health services for children and young people in Norfolk and Waveney.

As part of the project, Irene Carson at Rethink Partners would like to engage with some young people in general to understand how local young people build and maintain their emotional resilience.

To this end, would you be interested in running a focus group in your school in October or early November?

Rethink are working with a youth-led radio station (www.reprezent.org.uk) to offer something really fun and meaningful with the schools. Reprezent have a range of tools to make the sessions more relevant and useful for young people. They are DJs and presenters and use music as a gateway into having conversations that are driven by the young people and create some great content along the way.

There would also be the opportunity for staff (wellbeing, as well as teaching) to be part of an additional focus group.

For more information or to discuss running a focus group in your school, please contact Irene Carson : irene@rethinkpartners.co.uk or 07903-094516.
