Every day young people across our region face the overwhelming challenges of mental distress and anxiety. Last year alone, nearly 5,000 children and young people were supported by our local Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) teams - and the need is growing.
You can help.
With your support, we can fund more Sensory Modulation Kits for inpatient and community teams within the Mental Health, Addictions & Intellectual Disability Service.
These specially designed kits help patients manage agitation and emotional distress through calming sensory input, using items like weighted animals, textured tools, and fidget devices.
Each kit costs around $5,000, and every one provides vital tools that allow trained staff to create safe, soothing spaces where patients can de-escalate, regain control and participate more fully in their recovery.
Your gift will help more people access the care and comfort they need in moments of distress. |
