Parent and carer advisors
The parent and carer advisors aim to meet monthly and come together to share ideas and concerns that will help further shape that way the Children and Family Health Devon work and communicate with children, young people and their families.

- Planning and delivering training to staff

- Helping to write letters, leaflets and other information to make sure it is young person and family friendly
