Further guidance and information. 

Sometimes, you just need a list of a few places to go where you can speak to someone. Our Trust website has lots of resources that you can access to help you find more information and people with whom you can talk. 

We also provide our students with lots of additional sources of information via our Pupil Wellbeing Hub. This is a service offered to all children across all of our schools.
