Healthier Together
The Healthier Together website and app have been developed by local NHS healthcare professionals to help parents and carer make confident decisions about their child’s health. Using a traffic light system, Healthier Together provides clear advice on what to look out for, when and where to seek help, and how to care for your child’s symptoms at home. The guidance can help you decide whether to visit your GP, seek advice from your local pharmacy, or manage your child’s illness safely yourself.
They also provide advice on school attendance and a directory of local health and wellbeing services.
