The mental health of children and young people is a growing concern within the general population, and this is especially the case for those with social care needs. Figures from the mental health charity MIND show that young people within the social care sector are five times more likely than the average young person to develop mental health problems. Up to 50% of children currently in the Looked After system have significant mental health needs that require attention, and 34% of these have had specialist input from Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) for their identified needs.
