Being a child in today's world is hard: The current picture of child mental health in the UK is concerning:

Here at Standing in the Gap we stand in the large gap between the underfunded NHS services and children and parents.

We bridge the gap in child mental health support with a programme of facilitated talks, workshops, online resources and bespoke support.

We work in empowering partnerships with parents and schools to achieve emotional well being and good mental health in preschool and primary aged children.

See www.standinginthegap.uk for more info.

Our support makes a real difference, please help us support more children and families before they hit crisis.

To date we have worked with over 3500 children and parents.

What do they say about us?

“Thank-You. Services like this are what make a difference"

“Standing in the Gap is a wonderful charity focusing not just on the mental health of children but also equipping parents in supporting them too”

“Standing in the Gap enables parents to better support their children's emotional needs. I am really pleased you exist as we I have wanted to seek help for a long time but not known where to get support.”

Following 121 support through our TLC bespoke support programme a mum told us: "Since working with Standing in the Gap, we have seen a 90% shift in our family and are all so much better from the support. We now know what to do with BIG emotions. Thank you so much"
