North Northamptonshire 11-19 Thriving In Life

Our school nurse team work with children over the age of 11. They offer support with many different areas of life including:

• encouraging healthy lifestyle choices
• support with emotional wellbeing including services such as Chat Health
• identifying children and young people who may need additional support

Are you 11-19 years old? You can text a school nurse for free, confidential help and advice!

Just text: 07507 329 600 (Mon-Fri 9am-4pm)

Our school nurse team can offer you advice on:

• alcohol and drugs
• body image
• bullying and cyber bullying
• exam anxiety
• family issues
• healthy eating
• mental health 
• relationships
• self-harm
• smoking
• social networking

We just want to let you know a little bit about confidentiality. Unless you give permission, a School Nurse will not pass on anything you say to anyone else, like parents, teachers, or other students - except in extreme circumstances like if the health, safety or welfare of you or someone else is at significant risk. If we did need to tell someone about something you had told us, we would always try to speak with you first. For our safety and yours we hold information that you tell us on electronic records that can be seen by other healthcare professionals who all follow the same confidentiality rules - this can include your doctor. Records are kept for future use.

We work closely with North Northamptonshire Council who fund our services in North Northamptonshire. North Northamptonshire Council are developing family hubs, a great resource to find support and resources for children, young people and their families.

We are committed to ensuring that our services are designed, reviewed and formed by the people that use them. Our Children and Young People know exactly what we need to deliver to meet their needs, so we make sure that they are at the heart of all we do. We host a number of groups that children, families and carers can get involved with on a regular basis, as well as have 'pop up' groups that help us to design and deliver project work.
