Peer Support Virtual Offer – Feb 2021
Our Peer Support Service is available to all parents and carers that have Children or Young People, who are accessing, or likely to access mental health services (CAMHS). This includes Autism and ADHD (suspected, awaiting assessment or diagnosed), as well as all other mental health needs. We can support with all areas including behaviours, anxiety, emotional regulation, sensory support etc, and signposting to other appropriate services. Your child/young person needs to be registered with a Rotherham GP to access this service.
Our Peer Support Team continue to work remotely and offer telephone appointments for our current families and for new referrals. One to one telephone support appointments are available to be booked Monday to Friday including Tuesday and Thursday evenings. To access this service and/or self-refer, follow this link https://www.rpcf.co.uk/peer-support-service2
Virtual Drop-ins take place every Monday and Friday 10:00am-11:30pm (excluding bank holidays). Make yourself a cuppa and join us for a virtual Drop-in via the ZOOM platform. This is an opportunity to chat with others that are in a similar situation, seek advice and support, reduce isolation and hopefully bring a smile to your faces at a difficult time. We have practitioners from various services in attendance including the Educational Psychology Team, SENDIASS, Autism East Midlands, The Education, Health & Care Assessment Team (EHCAT) and the Autism Information and Advice Service. Parents and Carers can book private online appointments to take place during the Zoom drop-in. For more details, please visit our events page https://www.rpcf.co.uk/our-events
We run regular group training workshops that will help with common issues relating to your young person's mental health needs including managing anxiety, emotional regulation, foundations for communication, advocating for your child and sensory differences. We offer both daytime and evening sessions and run these in small groups on Zoom. To register your interest please visit https://www.rpcf.co.uk/training-workshops and we will be in touch.
Please get in touch if you think we may be able to support you and your family.
