Another important aspect of our work is to raise awareness of perinatal and parent infant mental health in this critical period and the importance of the parent infant relationship. We offer training, support and consultation across health and social care services and the voluntary sector.\u00a0 We want to make sure that families receive the right help, at the right time by the right service and the partnerships with GPs, maternity services, children\u2019s services, social care and adult mental health services and the voluntary sector organisations are key.<\/p>\n<p>Every borough has an integrated perinatal and parent infant mental health pathway aimed at promoting a seamless, flexible and high-quality responsive care for all families.
