Professionals delivering preventative programmes of care will be alerted by a failsafe management service when an intervention is due or has been missed. This provision of information is known as the ‘Local Offer’ which stems from the Children and Families Act 2014 and the Special Educational Needs reforms. Local Authorities also publish information about services available outside its geographical area, which can also be used. This service directory gives a description of each Berkshire Healthcare Foundation Trust service, how to get help, who to contact and service location details where relevant. Please remember that for many of these services you will need to be referred for treatment, usually by your GP.

It may also help if you encourage your child to eat slowly and have set mealtimes. You can use mealtimes as an opportunity to catch up on what’s happened during the day. For younger children, it can take the form of active play, such as ball games, chasing games like “it” and “tag”, riding a scooter, and using playground swings, climbing frames and see-saws. Any changes you make to your child’s diet and lifestyle are much more likely to be accepted if the changes are small and involve the whole family.

The new NHS Essex Child Health app has been designed to give parents, grandparents and carers across Essex NHS advice at their fingertips, to help look after their children’s health and recognise when they are unwell. There will be an online record of a child’s health and development as well as their health and care issues. Technology is fundamental to this transformation and is no longer on the edge of services, but is central to the delivery of health and care for both adults and children.
