Things about young peoples mental health
‘You should only have to tell your story once, to someone who is dedicated to helping you, and you shouldn't have to repeat it to lots of different people' so a ‘passport’ style brief of key facts that children and young people using mental health services can use to help them avoid repeating their history and preferences was launched last week
The ‘passport’ idea, which includes clinical information as well as key personal preferences, has been developed by young people, parents and carers and can now be used across care settings either on paper or on mobile phones. More information here

Things with a great cover

One of the recent books we bought has a cover that always makes me smile it is 'Blind Spots - why we fail to do what's right and what to do about it'. All about  human behaviour and ethics in our workplaces, institutions and everyday lives.

Things to make (with the kids?)

I made some lovely biscuits last week using this basic recipe and there are specific suggestions of ones to make with children in this guide . It's really nice to experiment by adding different ingredients - my chocolate and dried cherry ones went very quickly!
