Jigsaw are running a number of courses for parents all centred around giving them better knowledge around youth mental health, the issues impacting the mental health and well being of young people, how to support young people to manage anxiety, self care during the winter and supporting young people who may be struggling with their mental health at school along with loads of other webinars!
They also have support resources for parents where they can ask questions anonymously and these questions will be answered by Jigsaw clinicians.
They also have online supports for young people between 12-25 such as 1:1 live chats or group chats (the person will remain anonymous in the group chat and if they wish to stay anonymous in the live 1:1 chat they can do so)
