A very warm welcome to the first edition of the Family Support Hub Newsletter of 2025. We’re already into the second month and half term beckons. In this edition we have lots of information on events and services that can support families and young people. As always we have information on the fabulous Youth Wellness Web. This was co-designed and produced with young people for young people and has lots of really useful information tailored by age group. There is a section designed for teachers and parents to help them to support their young people and children. It’s an excellent example of the work of the Children and Young People’s Partnership, the same partnership the Family Support Hub Network sits within. As this newsletter is coming out towards the end of Children’s Mental Health Week, you will see we have provided a break down of the data our Information Team collate to evaluate the reach and use. Please take the time to have a look and please, please promote the Youth Wellness Web to your friends, colleagues and most importantly to any young people in your lives.

It is also packed full of information for parents/carers, early years, children & young people with a disability,  mental health and wellbeing advice,  Helplines and much more – make sure you download your copy now!

Previous editions of the newsletter are available at  http://www.cypsp.hscni.net/family-support-hubs  under Family Support Newsletter section.
