Parents and Carers can make requests for assistance for Mental Health support for their child from the Single Point of Access. This is best done with a professional you know and trust which is often someone from your child's school but could also be a GP, social worker or support worker. However, if you would rather make contact yourself and not involve a professional in making the request, please simply email us at cypspa@eastlothian.gov.uk and one of our team will be in touch.

In the meantime, we have a service your young person can access if they are 10 or older. It's an online service called "Kooth". Your young person can access tons of self help and even have text based conversations with a trained mental health practitioner.
