Overview
Mental Health Support Teams (MHST) are part of a project funded by NHS England, Health Education England and partners with the aim of improving the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people in the community in response to the government's Green Paper for Young People's Mental Health. This is an exciting time of growth and change within CAMH services as we are working collaboratively with children and young people (CYP), and partners to deliver the government's programme for mental health support to be available in schools.
