Community Matters: Mental Health

It is an ambition of Wirral Council to make the borough a great place to grow up. Children and families need to feel a sense of belonging in the communities where they live, to be able to access help from those around them in the least intrusive and most accessible way. Therefore, we are committed to changing the way in which early help is delivered by investing in voluntary, community, faith, and educational organisations. With the right support, families and communities can collaborate to achieve outcomes which are mutually beneficial. The provider will supply lead workers, either through paid employees or volunteers, who can work alongside children, young people and families to improve their mental health and wellbeing to enable day to day life to improve and ensure needs are met through early help.
