Deeside Child and Adolescent Service, 16 Wepre Drive, Connah's Quay, Deeside, Clwyd CH5 4HA
In this article we give an alternative view of service provision for adolescents with emotional difficulties centred around four high schools. We believe that the service we offer differs In a number of ways and has a number of benefits for clients and other pupils and staff at the schools. We present this view of our service with some Information about Its historical context and as a snapshot of the current state of the service In the expectation that there will be further developments.
