Parents and carers are often the first place young people go when they're struggling – whether that's relationships, school or their mental health.

However experienced you are, it can be hard to know the right thing to say when someone you love is hurting, or what next steps to take.

This Children's Mental Health Week, we want parents and carers to know that help’s out there.

Our Parents Helpline advisors are just a click or phone call away with free, expert, confidential, 1-1 advice. And we have hundreds of online guides and real stories from parents who get it.

Here are some of the top concerns parents talk to us about:

Are you a parent or carer? Let us know so we can better support you.

Nobody should feel alone when someone they love is struggling – and you can help.

Have you used our advice or support? Do you have a story that could help a parent feel seen and understood?

Take care,

YoungMinds💛
