Representatives from Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust reported that the initiative had supported 136 young people, showing an average 30% improvement in wellbeing.
The reported improvement in wellbeing was valued at approximately £600,000 over a twelve-month period. The initiative, designed to offer comprehensive support with a 'no wrong front door' principle, also includes a newly developed website to assist young people and their families.
