Children’s Mental Health Week (CMHW) started yesterday and is running until Sunday the 7th of February.

At Butler Residential we recognise how challenging the lockdowns have been for children of all ages (and adults) We have three boys, all at different stages of their development both physically and mentally and that’s why we’re putting our full support behind this initiative.

The project’s patron, HRH The Duchess of Cambridge, launched the event with a special video message.

The Duchess is a passionate supporter of children’s mental health and spoke about the importance of young people expressing their feelings safely and creatively.

It’s in keeping with the theme of this year’s week, which is Express Yourself.

The Duchess also spoke about the importance of parents and carers looking after their mental health and making time for themselves.

The CMHW website is filled with activities and resources for children and parents to do exactly that.

Lookout on Thursday for our 7 top tips to help children and young adults with their mental health.
