Description

MindEd is a free educational resource on children and young people's mental health for all adults. MindEd is suitable for all adults working with, or caring for, infants, children or teenagers; all the information provided is quality assured by experts, useful, and easy to understand.

We aim to give adults who care for, or work with, young people:

  • The knowledge to support their wellbeing
  • The understanding to identify a child at risk of a mental health condition
  •  The confidence to act on their concern and, if needed, signpost to services that can help

MindEd is cross-professional,  it can be used by:

  • teachers
  • health professionals
  • police 
  • judiciary staff
  • social workers
  • youth service volunteers
  • school counsellors among others to support their professional development.

There are also specific resources to support CAMHS and CYP IAPT learners and those on counselling courses.

All registered learners can access a learning path tailored to their needs.

Throughout the MindEd site we make use of images.

The MindEd Consortium comprises: Royal College of Psychiatrists, British Psychological Society, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, Royal College of Nursing, Royal College of General Practitioners, National Children's Bureau and YoungMinds.
