Wilmslow
We are Barnardo’s Healthy Minds Wiltshire, run by Barnardo’s and funded by
Wiltshire Council. Barnardo’s believes in early intervention, providing support
for children and young people before they face more serious mental health
issues. With the right support, young people can transform their lives . Growing
up is a challenge for everyone, but for some it’s more difficult than others. We
offer practical and emotional support so that young people can enter adulthood
with the confidence they need to achieve their full potential. We run many
services across the UK, supporting young people’s emotional health and
wellbeing, from one-to-one counselling to group work and schools-based
programmes. This website has lots of information, practical tips and advice
about supporting children and young people’s emotional wellbeing. We are here to
help young people aged 5-18 registered with a GP in Wiltshire who are
experiencing a range of early mental health difficulties through group work,
activities in the community and counselling sessions for those young people who
need more intensive support. We are also an all year round service and so our
support does not stop in school holidays. We welcome referrals from young
people, parents, carers and professionals. If you want to contact the service
