We are writing invite you to take part in EN-CAMHS 2, a research project funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) that aims to make it easier for children and young people to get the mental health support they need, when they need it1. This project builds on our previous work in EN-CAMHS 1, where we learned from children, young people, their families, and professionals about how to make the referral process for Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) better. We are hosting a series of focus groups with key stakeholders to understand how we can make referrals to CAMHS more successful. We want to hear from you about your experiences with CAMHS referrals, both good and bad, so that we can develop a digital tool that makes the process smoother and more efficient for everyone.
We are looking to recruit people with experience of being referred to CAMHS in the last 5 years (but are not currently under CAMHS) aged 16-30 years old. This is regardless of whether you went under CAMHS or not.
Dates available are:
- 20th November
- 22nd November
- 9th December
- 10th December
