The NHS needs your input!

A new survey is now open to help shape the future of emotional wellbeing and mental health services for children and young people in Shropshire, Telford, and Wrekin.

This initiative builds on previous feedback that has already made a difference, ensuring that the voices of young people, parents, carers, professionals, schools, and volunteers continue to guide how these essential services are planned and delivered.

Your feedback is vital to ensuring that services are accessible, effective, and focused on what matters most to children, young people, and their families. By sharing your experiences and ideas, you’ll play a key role in shaping services that meet the diverse needs of our community.

Who Should Participate:

  • Children and young people. Please note if you are under the age of 16, please ask a trusted adult to help you complete the survey on your behalf.
  • Parents and carers.
  • Professionals, schools, and volunteers who support children and young people.

The survey is anonymous, and your responses will help ensure diverse representation, guiding future improvements and decision-making.

Your responses will remain anonymous, and demographic information will only be used to help us ensure that the responses we receive reflect the diverse range of people who use these services. For more information about how we handle and process data and information, please click here.

This survey will remain open until Friday 7 March 2025. Please find further information and access to the survey here:

Have Your Say: Help Shape the Future of Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Services - NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin

Shropshire Council and its partners have launched new webpages to highlight the community and family support on offer in hubs all over the county. 

The community and family hubs are located in Shrewsbury, Oswestry, Bridgnorth, Market Drayton, Highley and Ludlow, with activities and guidance available to help families and residents stay healthy and connected. 

There is a wide range of support on offer based on feedback from communities, from early help for families, domestic abuse support, help to stop smoking, information and housing and more, for all ages, which all links to NHS integrated neighbourhood teams. 

Whilst much of the support is already ongoing, the new webpages bring the services together to one online space, so people can easily search and find what they need.

The Parish Council has added a new page to the website under 'Parish Info' so that we can add items of interest to residents, which go beyond 'news' items.

First up is an update on the discussions the Parish Council has been having with Freedom Fibre on your behalf, to try and understand how the planned improvements to Broadband connections are going to impact on the Parish and to try and influence the ways the plans will be implemented, especially in respect of the number and placing of new poles to carry the fibre cables.
