Our network partners Child Outcomes Research Consortium (CORC) want to know what you think about the questionnaires used in children and young people mental health (CYPMH) services in order to help the NHS ensure it has the best measures in place and to support improvements in young people’s mental health outcomes.
CORC is especially interested in the views of children and young people who have been seen in a CYPMH service, but the survey can also be completed by providers o...f CYPMH services and parents/carers who have used CYPMH services.
The survey takes less than 5 minutes! Have your say now or pass this on to anyone who you think may wish to participate!

We need more help for children and adult's with mental health problems, like units and self-help groups. I myself have epilepsy and have a granddaughter with Altruism, So I know what pressure people are under

The resources are so supportive for early help, taking away stigma in order to nurture children and families in time of need. Thank you �

Thanks for making your work available to those of us living abroad and seeking ways to engage educators and parents in meaningful conversations in mental health. You are indeed, a national centre !

Thank You!

I have studied here several times and find them highly professional. The work they are doing is fantastic!!

I believe is the most beautiful work this organization makes for this amazing people the mental health is not a choice is sad 🌹

Great workshop with fantastic insights and knowledge shared, thank you

Excellent professionals!

Attended a open day evening, I was welcomed, supported and given good array of knowledge towards applying for a course, now to write the application !!!

An incredible place that changes children's lives every day.

Shameful history behind how this organization was and is funded...... Come Home Marilyn Monroe. They manipulated you...... Give all the funds back to the Marilyn Monroe Family.....

Shame on you, shame on you forever.

Long live Marilyn and her memory will live forever while yours will be erased in time.
