Graham Allen: ...care centres before the birth is tiny relative to what it costs to get a youngster on to a drug rehab programme. It costs the taxpayer £250,000 to keep a 16-year-old at a secure unit. However, Place2Be—a voluntary sector scheme that helps young people under the age of 10 talk about their problems, get their anxieties out and get the help that they need—costs my city £100,000. We have...

Tony Lloyd: ...progress that has been made. The hopeful point is that we can see that if we take co-ordinated steps, we will begin to make a difference. I recently visited a scheme in London called The Place2Be, which is about active intervention in schools. I want it to come into my inner-city constituency as it supports young children who bring massive emotional, sometimes psychological, difficulties...
Graham Allen: ...programme and the supporting progress initiative have made substantial gains. The family literacy scheme is doing superb work with parents; literacy volunteers are giving immense support; the Place2B is giving parents an understanding of their children's reading needs. Other innovations include the "mega read" project, linking primaries, secondaries and library services, and the web-based...
Baroness Sharp of Guildford: ...No. 218A asks that those pupils who need help with managing behaviour and relationships should be given support and guidance. We have in mind the sort of counselling advice offered by the charity Place2Be, which a number of noble Lords know about and have perhaps visited. It operates in some 120 primary schools in deprived areas, dealing with children referred by the staff because their...
Baroness Walmsley: ...'s agenda to fund multi-agency activity in support of vulnerable children. I wonder whether that could be extended widely enough to include mental health and counselling services, such as the Place2Be initiative, about which I am very enthusiastic, as the Minister knows. I also wonder whether there is any limit on the amount of such funding that can be spent in the voluntary sector. What...

Baroness Sharp of Guildford: ...in the bud we have to get in early. It is in the primary schools that these disorders show themselves and, if they can be diagnosed, we need to pay attention to them. A programme called the "Place2Be" concerns the placement of counsellors in primary schools. It has been run on a pilot basis since 1994 and has been gradually rolling out. Its advantage is that it places a counsellor within a...
