Emotional Well-being of Children and Young People - Parent/Carer Survey

As part of this process the council have undertaken a significant amount of research to understand what the key priorities are, which groups are most vulnerable and to inform future commissioning plans.

We have already carried out surveys with schools, providers, children and young people. The most recent survey is asking for parents and carers to provide feedback on their views about the emotional wellbeing of their children, and ways in which we can work together to ensure that all Hartlepool children and young people receive the support they need.

The purpose of this survey is to understand;

• what good emotional wellbeing and mental health should look like in Hartlepool;
• to identify the gaps and issues in our current service provision;
• to plan what arrangement of services we need to put in place to meet the needs of children and young people, now and in the future.

The findings from this survey will be used together with other information to help plan a broader emotional wellbeing and mental health service to children and young people.
