National Paediatric Mental Health Programme

In partnership with the NHS, Certified Minds has developed and delivered a three-five-day multi-disciplinary mental health programme designed to build confidence, capability and compassion when caring for children and young people presenting with mental health needs in acute settings.
The programme combines evidence-based learning with reflective practice and hands-on, real-life scenarios — giving staff practical tools and tips they can apply directly in their clinical work. Delivered to over 40 groups of paediatric teams across the UK, from Cumbria to the Isle of Wight!
