Children’s Mental Health Week isn’t far away (6th-12th February), and we are working close with our partners in the Bank workers charity to provide support.

Relate
In partnership with Relate (the UK’s largest provider of relationship counselling), we can offer support to a child or young person in helping them talk about how they feel, about problems related to:
- bullying, harassment, self-harm or school pressures
- worries at home or trouble with their own relationships
- depression, loneliness, anger issues or other mental health problems

Support for neurodiverse children
If your child is neurodiverse (affected by autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia or ADHD), we may be able to help with:
- guidance on getting a diagnosis
- getting specialist support
- recommendations for and help with obtaining specialist educational equipment, such as a tablet or laptop, or adaptations.
