Most people think of MS as the most common neurological condition affecting young people of working age. But this overlooks the estimated 10% of people with MS who develop the condition during childhood, many of which are either left undiagnosed or, once diagnosed, receive very little support.

Delivering improvements to My CAMHS Choices - Update

Delivering improvements to My CAMHS Choices - Update

The generous grant awarded to the Centre from The Pixel Fund has enabled us to develop this website from an idea into a reality. The website – On My Mind – has an emphasis on reaching those who are thinking about looking for support, who may already be receiving or waiting to receive support or those who require help and information about self-managing their own wellbeing, perhaps because ‘traditional’ offers either do not appeal or have not previously worked.
