Best For You is a new NHS project for young people and their families, providing digital tools to help with mental health care.
Visit www.bestforyou.org.uk to find information and support, including:
- Helpful websites and apps that have been reviewed to make sure they’re safe and accurate
- Clear information about mental health conditions and local mental health services
- Peer-to-peer support and advice
- Crisis information, including a free, confidential, 24/7 text support service. Text NATTER to 85258 to message a trained volunteer
New resources have been developed to promote Best For You services. Please share these widely:
- A flyer summarising existing digital resources including the website, the crisis text service, the app library and Kooth
- A poster promoting the website
Share your story to help other young people
Best For You wants to hear from young people. Sharing real stories is one of the most powerful ways to let young people who are struggling know they’re not alone.
Here is a handout that CNWL's Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMHS) services can use with patients.
