September 30, 2026Mental health and emotional wellbeing were high on the agenda for discussion at today’s Dungannon LPG Meeting, so it was only fitting that we took some time out to raise awareness of the Public Health Agency (PHA) and Health and Social Care Trusts’ current ‘Feeling Anxious?’ Mental Health Awareness Campaign. Running from 10th September to 10th October 2026, the ‘Feeling Anxious? Campaign highlights practical ways we can look after our mental health and encourages people to recognise when they may be feeling anxious and to find out what support is available to them in their local area. Our Dungannon LPG members were keen to support the campaign and help amplify this important campaign. By talking openly about mental health and sharing information about support, we can all play a part in helping people feel more comfortable reaching out when they need it.

The Children and Young People’s Strategic Partnership (CYPSP) brings together a range of agencies, including voluntary and community sector organisations, that aim to improve the lives of children and young people in Northern Ireland.

In the past, despite best efforts, everyone who worked with children and young people provided services separately which only created problems for children and young people, and their families and wasted resources. The CYPSP aims to plan and provide services for children and young people more efficiently by making joint decisions about the services needed, and funding these services together.

Importantly, the CYPSP emphasizes a rights-based approach to its work. This means planning services that uphold children’s rights and encouraging children, young people and their parents to participate in the process.
