On the 29th July, Listening Ear attended the Family Hub Launch Event at Jubilee Family Hub to promote the launch of the new Knowsley Open Gateway Service (KOGS).

We attended with ZunTold, Wirral Community Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust Knowsley Council and NHS Cheshire and Merseyside.

We met lots of other providers and services who offer support in Knowsley, introduced our collaborative to the Mayor of Knowsley and Local Councillors, and even met some furry friends! It was a fantastic day for building relationships, meeting with local families, and raising awareness of mental health support services for children and young people in Knowsley.
