Public Health England\u2019s Segment Tool provides data on what causes of death are driving inequalities in life expectancy at both regional and local authority level. For regions where life expectancy is lower than England, the tool shows the causes of death which are contributing to this gap. This can be viewed at the following link:<\/p>

Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust is working with NHS England to develop and implement measures to reduce waiting times. NHS England has increased funding for the Trust\u2019s Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) by around 150% since 2015/16, but the Trust continues to face challenges in recruiting clinical staff in GIDs with significant experience and expertise.<\/p>

The service has trialled several initiatives to provide support to young people who are referred, this includes - but is not limited to:<\/p>

- an ongoing recruitment drive;<\/p>

- initiatives to actively manage the waiting list offering consultations to local services in complex cases while they wait for specialist input;<\/p>

- consultation sessions with local mental health services and group sessions with children under 10 years of age;<\/p>

- regularly reviewing communication around the waiting lists to equip young people with information which is as accurate as possible about their wait;<\/p>

- reviewing policies and procedures around first appointments, for example looking at Did Not Attend (DNA) policies to ensure those offered appointments to take them up;<\/p>

- giving more attention to clinically appropriate timely transitions between the Trust\u2019s gender identity service and adult services; and<\/p>

- clinician operated \u2018helpline\u2019 for urgent enquiries/concerns from young people, their families and referrers on the waiting list.<\/p>

Although relatively rare, the number of suicides amongst children and young people remains a concern. The National Suicide Prevention Strategy highlights children and young people as a group requiring tailored approaches to mental health to reduce their risk of suicide. We published the first Cross-Government Suicide Prevention Workplan in January this year which sets out an ambitious programme for suicide prevention across national and local government. This workplan highlights steps we are taking across Government to reduce suicides in children and young people. The workplan is available at the following link:<\/p>

The Department is committing increased expenditure to support the provision of mental health services in the community, to reduce the need for children to be admitted to mental health hospitals unless absolutely necessary.<\/p>

Through the NHS Long Term Plan, published in January 2019, mental health funding will grow by at least £2.3 billion a year by 2023/24, with funding for children and young people\u2019s mental health services growing faster than both overall National Health Service funding and total mental health spending. This extra investment will mean an extra 345,000 children and young people aged 0-25 will receive mental health support by 2023/24.<\/p>

The key proposals in \u2018Transforming children and young people\u2019s mental health provision: a green paper\u2019 aim to improve early intervention. New mental health support teams will deliver evidence-based interventions in or close to schools and colleges for those with mild to moderate mental health issues in 25 trailblazer areas in England. 12 of the 25 trailblazer sites will pilot a four-week waiting time to speed up children and young people\u2019s access to NHS mental health services.<\/p>

Over the next five years, the NHS will therefore continue to invest in expanding access to community-based mental health services to meet the needs of more children and young people.<\/p>

The NHS Long Term Plan prioritises services for children and young people, providing a clear focus on improving the health and wellbeing of children and young people with learning disabilities and/or autism, as well as committing to implementing \u2018Building the right support\u2019 in full, achieving at least a 50% reduction in the number of people with a learning disability or autism who are inpatients, compared to the figure in 2015, by the end of 2023/24.<\/p>

The Long Term Plan sets out specific commitments to achieve this by developing new models of care to provide care closer to home and investing in intensive, crisis and forensic community support. By 2023/24 children and young people with a learning disability, autism or both with the most complex needs will also have a designated keyworker. These will be initially provided to children and young people who are inpatients or at risk of being admitted to hospital.<\/p>

Furthermore, the Government is committed to reviewing mental health legislation so that it works better for both adults and children. We are currently considering the findings from the independent review of the Mental Health Act 1983, which covers how a person can be detained or sectioned for treatment and will respond in due course.<\/p>
