Lot 1 — Support for young people dealing with stress:

The service will aim to deliver support to the young people with emotional health needs related to stress and anxiety below the threshold for Tier 2 CAMHS services across Richmond and Kingston. For young people who meet the threshold for Tier 2 support, they will be eligible for support from Achieving for Children's (AfC's) Emotional Health Service. At Tier 3, services will be provided by South West London and St Georges, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHs).

AfC is seeking to provide a service for young people, and potentially their families, to ensure that low level mental health concerns, particularly those which are stress related, are met by the service to prevent any escalation. The objective will be to provide young people, across both boroughs, with ways of coping with stress to ensure a good level of emotional well-being.
