Please take a couple of minutes to complete a very short survey on ‘FYI’ which will give you the chance to suggest ways we can improve this invaluable resource – See page 3.

You will see in this edition, two great new sources of information and support which have been raised at our Locality Planning Groups over the last couple of years. The first, on page 21, gives you links to the new Bereaved NI database on bereavement support and offers a range of essential support for all ages. The second, on page 33, is the recently-produced guidance by the PHA on vaping, providing factual information and advice to inform young people, teachers, parents/carers and others working with young people about vaping, the law and associated risks.
