  1. Redesign of the CAMHS Department... THE BIRCH CENTRE

  2. The design and layout of the new building was largely chosen by young people Rachel and Emma engaged with from secondary schools, the ‘Listen Up’ group, the Youth Voice Conference and other local youth and community groups.

  3. They met with the architect and designer to share their ideas about how they would like the waiting area, the parents and family room, and general decor style of the new CAMHS building.

  4. They chose a bright, colourful theme with a geometric style

  5. They chose the new name!

  6. There is an off-set parents and carers room as you walk through the entrance

  7. Comfortable, modern furniture with a vibrant look

  8. Well-lit, ambient waiting areas for two separate age groups

  9. A private garden area still currently underway

  10. A second waiting area filled with books, toys and comfy seating (0- 13 years)

  11. A coloured floor was another specially-requested feature along with the colours, lighting and furniture

  12. Jazzy prints on the doors (and more to come for the walls!)

  13. Parents and family room ...

  14. Comfortable therapy rooms which aren’t too large

  15. The Listen Up group visited the Birch Centre for the first time last week. Their feedback was... “We’ve been listened to”
