Abstract

Concerns over mental health (MH) provision for children and young people (CYP) has gained momentum since being a focus of the Department of Health’s UK public health policy in 2000. Over the years, the attention on CYP MH has increased due to the degree of emotional and behavioural issues reported, and demand for improvements in provisions. This increased incidence in CYP MH wellbeing issues leaves us pondering questions as to why and what we need to do about it. This review explores how problems have arisen and how we might successfully respond to these challenges.
