Compass is delighted to announce we have been awarded the contract to deliver the North East Lincolnshire Mental Health Support Teams (MHSTs)!
This service will be one of the national MHST in educational settings Trailblazer sites (wave 2 of 3) across England to increase the CYPs mental health workforce and is a response to the governments Future In Mind’s Green Paper recommendations. The Trailblazer and national programme is being overseen centrally by NHSE HEE and DfE.
Our model will ensure children and young people access the right early help, in the right setting removing duplication and preventing CYP/families being ‘bounced’ in-between services via:
- Delivering evidence based interventions for mild to moderate mental health and emotional wellbeing needs
- Supporting designated senior MH lead in each school/education setting
- Providing timely advice to school and college staff
Further information is available via the North East Lincolnshire Council website: https://www.nelincs.gov.uk/mental-health-support-team-provider-announced/
