This post is being shared on behalf of NHS Devon:

"NHS Devon is starting to plan new contracts for children’s community health services, taking account of the new NHS 10 year plan.

As we plan for the future, we want to hear from children, young people, families, and others who use these services. Children’s community health services include things like:

✅Autism (ASD) assessments
✅Learning disability nursing
✅Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS)
✅Children’s community nursing
✅Community Paediatrics
✅ Community Therapy services – physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy.

We know people have already shared their thoughts in the past, and we will use that feedback too. Now, we want to understand what is most important to you going forward so we can focus our work and make sure our plans meet children’s needs. Please give us your view on this survey: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=slTDN7CF9UeyIge0jXdO41YCVT3UaP5AudUItQOpZSJUOVlNUlpGNExPWUVEQkRCQU9ENkdUWlY1US4u

Please complete the survey by the 5th of December. It would also be helpful if you could tell us a bit more about yourself and let us know what services you have used.

Thank you for your support."
