We are Barnardo’s Healthy Minds Wiltshire
About our service
We are Barnardo’s Healthy Minds Wiltshire, run by Barnardo’s and funded by Wiltshire Council.
This website has lots of information, practical tips and advice about supporting children and young people’s emotional wellbeing.
We are here to help young people aged 5-18 who are experiencing a range of early mental health difficulties through group work, activities in the community and counselling sessions for those young people who need more intensive support.
We welcome referrals from young people, parents, carers and professionals. If you want to talk to one of our team about the help we can offer please complete our contact form here and we will get back to you.
During the pandemic we are providing many services online.
