Time to Talk Derbyshire

time to talk Derbyshire

Mental health problems affect one in four of us but there’s still a stigma attached to opening up and talking about it. 

This year Derbyshire County Council is running Time to Talk Derbyshire from February 7th to March 4th.

The campaign aims to encourage everyone to be more open about mental health – to talk, to listen, to change lives.

What are you doing to start the conversation? Get ideas about how to start talking about mental health at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/timetotalk

There's lots of ways to help improve your emotional wellbeing.  Have you tried the Five Ways to Wellbeing?

They're simple, everyday things to give your mood a little boost. Find out more at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/wellbeing


We want to hear from you

We want to hear your viewe about how we deliver children's health services in the future

We want to hear your thoughts about how we plan to deliver children's health services in the future.

We're looking at changing the way some services - the Derbyshire Healthy Families service and oral health promotion - are delivered.

We want to continue to improve the health and wellbeing of children, young people and families who use these services.

We believe that the best way to do this is to transfer both these services into a partnership arrangement with Derbyshire Community Health Services.

But before we do this we'd like to hear from anyone who currently uses the services to get their views. So please fill in our online consultation before 6 March 2022.

You can fill in the online consultation here.
