At Children North East, we understand that expecting a baby can be such a joyous time but it can also feel overwhelming and complicated. You are not alone, we are here to help with our specialist Parent-Infant Therapy service –Little Minds in Mind!
If you, or someone you care about is expecting a baby, we can offer practical and emotional support to help you explore your feelings, share any worries and help prepare you for the exciting new chapter. We promise a friendly, relaxed and supportive group environment.

Eco Influencers provides opportunities for young people aged 10-18 to design and deliver their own environmental social action projects that really make a difference. From outdoor eco classrooms to mindfulness wildlife gardens and recycling campaigns, young people across the region are leading the way.
