CAMHS Transitions with Becky

Hello & Welcome to the Research Zone podcast, the podcast where we aim to make sense of youth mental health research. Each week, we will talk to a different researcher to learn about their research project, discussing the why, what, where, when and how of their research, and most importantly, how this can benefit us as young people. 

Today I am joined by Becky Appleton to chat about transitioning out of CAMHS services. We will cover: 

What the transition period is, and how it’s usually done, 
Why this is such an important area of research,
What Becky’s project was, 
Peoples experiences of transitioning out of CAMHS, 
Recommendations of how to improve services to prevent people ‘falling through the gap’, 

If you've found anything talked about today upsetting or triggering, then please reach out for support! You can text YM to 82558, or visit findahelpline.com to find someone to help you with whatever you’re feeling. However you feel, you are never alone.
