The Children and Young People’s Mental Health (CYP MH) Network, hosted by ADPH London and OHID London, brings together public health colleagues to strengthen prevention and early intervention across London.

Local authority teams play a key role in promoting resilience, integrating services, and tackling inequalities affecting children and young people. This network provides a dedicated space for shared learning, collaboration, and evidence-led practice to improve mental wellbeing and prevent mental ill-health.

Aims of Network:

To support members to:

• Strengthen prevention and early intervention
• Share effective approaches across London
• Build partnerships to address inequalities and improve outcomes for children and young people.

ADPH London networks support connection, shared insight, and practical learning, helping translate evidence into local action.
