Our local LLR Future in Mind Transformational plan as agreed by NHS England in 2015 aspires to prevent mental illness from developing and to build emotional health and resilience in the children and young people of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR). The plan promises to promote and protect children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing and through working with schools (staff and pupils) to raise awareness on mental health issues.
