The Hub and the Parish Council are actively seeking a resolution to be able to accommodate

more young people at weekly sessions.

Chairman of Brampton Community Hub, Peter Menczer, said: "This project shows the power of different organisations, with different skills, linking up to deliver vitally needed health and wellbeing related services.

"Spending relatively small amounts of money today on young people's mental health issues will save huge amounts of expenditure later in life."

Executive councillor for community and health at HDC, Cllr Ben Pitt, said: "One of HDC's key priorities is to improve the quality of life for local people, and the work Brampton Hub is doing aligns perfectly to this.

"The Hub is offering vital services to support young people's health and wellbeing, whilst connecting with local professionals to ensure the offer is both beneficial and valuable.

"This project is so important to ensure our young residents are getting the support they need. "I encourage residents to get involved with Brampton Hub, and if you know of young people in the area, to signpost them towards this fantastic service, by emailing: clerk@bramptonpc.co.uk."
