Welcome to Forward Thinking Birmingham
The city's mental health partnership, for 0-25 year olds.
Working together for you
Our new, modern mental health service offers support, care and treatment for all 0-25s through one organisation, making it easier for you to access the right support at the right time.
We're a partnership of organisations that have come together to support children, young people and families in Birmingham. We also work with a number of organisations in the voluntary and community sector.
