Supporting our Secret Santa Christmas Appeal will help provide a gift to kids across our services within Cheshire and Merseyside, including Children in Care, those visiting Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and more, alleviating the financial pressure and anxiety experienced at this time of year and providing an experience that they may otherwise miss out on.

Knowsley CAMHS offer specialist work with children & young people presenting challenging mental health problems; many residing within disadvantaged communities. These young people will be experiencing one of the most challenging times in their lives. 

The Looked after Children team provide health and wellbeing support to children who have been in the care of their local authority, up until the age of 19. Our specialist nurses carry out assessments for children who attend local independent schools, children who range from 16-18 who are not in education or training and children in their transition from childhood to adulthood. 

The Hampton Road Health Visiting service provide support and guidance to parents through the early years of their parenting journey, helping parents to develop a close and loving relationship with their child. Our health visitors provide a holistic approach to support parents in the promotion of health and wellbeing of all pre-school aged children in Southport.

The Smithdown Children's walk-in centre is open 365 days a year providing consultations, advice and treatment for minor injuries and illnesses in children. Children sometimes become unwell or injured over the Christmas period and access our service. We would love to offer a little bit of joy and cheer by being able to provide them with a small gift.
