A major initiative to improve the support provided to young people in
the South of England with mental health issues will be launched today
(Tuesday).
More young people in Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bath and
North East Somerset, Dorset and Gloucestershire are set to benefit from
‘Children and Young People’s IAPT’ (Improving Access
to Psychological Therapies) which enables clinicians to be trained to

problems.
Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, which provides young people’s
mental health services to a number of counties in the South, and The
Charlie Waller Institute at the University of Reading, are
jointly involved in a three-year pilot project that began last
November.
