In another bumper edition we have a number of new sources for funding and would encourage any groups to have a look to see if this is relevant to your work. We have also included further funding sources towards the back, for specific areas in the Southern region, so don’t stop reading!

We are fast approaching our 100^th edition, in March, so would invite all of you who receive ‘FYI’ to let us know how relevant it is to your work and families. We will be including a selection of success stories in our 100^th edition to show how valuable this resource has been to date – See Page 3 for further details.

Keep connected!

This year’s Children’s Mental Health Week runs from 6^th-12^th February, with the theme being “Let’s Connect”. It made sense, therefore, for us to produce this special edition of ‘FYI’ into one raising awareness of support, services, resources and opportunities around the theme of mental health and emotional wellbeing. This, of course, is not the exhaustive list of support available, but we are very thankful to our colleagues who have submitted a plethora of information to share across our 900 contacts who receive ‘FYI’.

Tuesday 7^th February is also Safer Internet Day so we have included a great resource which we produced on Page 35 to signpost to key links to ensure you can keep children safer in a digital world.

We hope you get something from this edition to use or to share with families and colleagues. Your feedback is always welcome!
