Blue Smile is a children’s mental health charity working across Cambridgeshire and the surrounding area. We support children aged 3-13 years in schools through providing expert one to one therapy. Half of all lifetime mental health problems emerge by the age of 14 so in childhood we have a window of opportunity to intervene early on, preventing deterioration.
