Teresa Cope says CAMHS alone isn't enough for Island's young people
It feels wrong to only have one service available to help children in need of mental health support.
That's the view of the chief executive of Manx Care, who's pushing for the Island to introduce the THRIVE model.
The scheme is designed to focus on the needs and preferences of the patient and their family, and is reported to have cut waiting times for the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service in the UK.
Teresa Cope says only having the CAMHS option here isn't enough:
Pub's inclusive toilet signs vandalised
£100K cash injection for energy efficiency scheme
