Mental Health Champions

Mental Health Champion training is for anyone working with children and young people in Norfolk and Waveney. Mental Health champion training is funded by the ICB and free.

With evidence-based, research-led content that has been informed by children and young people living in the county, the training is ideal for anyone wanting to learn more about mental health and how to support the young people they work with.

The aim of the training is to help professionals feel more confident in supporting children and young people’s emotional wellbeing no matter their role. The training looks at having conversations about mental health, spotting signs and symptoms of mental ill health, and how a young persons development may affect their emotional wellbeing.

The training also helps participants to build a toolkit of strategies and signposting that they can use in their daily practice. Another key element of the training looks at the wide range of mental health services available in Norfolk & Waveney and helps professionals feel more confident in how to access them.
