Happy World Book day!📚
We're incredibly lucky to have a published author in our midst - our very own Emma!
She has been busy visiting local schools, hosting story time sessions with Year 1 pupils. Emma has been sharing her wonderful book "The Sun Can't Shine Everyday" and recently donated a complimentary copy to every school 🌞☁️
If you'd like a copy for your own bookshelf, you can grab it now on Amazon!

Question Time ❔❓💭

Each week, we will be posting a Q&A with some of our services most frequently asked questions to help our community better understand the support we offer 🩵

As a local mental health service, we know it can be hard to know where to start, what support looks like, or if a service is right for you.
