Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Intellectual Disability Team
We support children and young people who have a moderate to severe intellectual disability and mental health needs. Typically this is a young person who attends a special school with an IQ of 55 and below.
We work with their parents and carers, schools, health professionals, social care and short break providers, and offer tailored advice and strategies for each young person.
Our main base is at 68 Portland Street, Kirkby in Ashfield and we also hold clinics across the county and city.
Service opening hours
Monday – Friday 9am-5pm.
