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!

As our last ‘FYI’ for 2022, we thank you for your support, readership and submissions of information throughout the year. It has been a very challenging year in many ways, however demonstrates the need to support everything and everyone working in our communities for the benefit of children, young people and families.

We extend our invitation to all practitioners and volunteers to attend any of our LPG meetings and have included a calendar for all our 6 LPG meeting dates in 2023 on Page 3.

If you would like to receive any of the flyers included as individual attachments (for forward sharing), please just e-mail localityplanning@ci-ni.org.uk and we will send that by return.

Wishing you a very restful festive period and best wishes for the new year!

We are enjoying re-connecting with our Locality Planning Group members via our face-to-face meetings from October to December and will alternate these meetings between face-to-face and Zoom, to accommodate all members. These meetings give us the chance to make great contacts and connections, and to share information like we include in ‘FYI’.  If you work to improve the lives of children and young people (including family/parent support), you are most welcome to attend one of our LPG meetings. Contact us to find out more.

We have one more edition of ‘FYI’ between now and the end of the year, so please send any information or notification of events, etc. to us by the end of Tuesday 6^th December.
