To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 16 April 2024 to Question 20454 on Mental Health Services: Stockport, what the average financial spend was per child and young person supported; and what the average number of contacts was per child and young person supported.
Maria Caulfield
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade) (Minister for Women)
Data from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023 shows the average cost per contact is £333, and that then Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust received over 8,000 referrals, with a 96% acceptance rate. This is only for the children and young people’s mental health service provided by Pennine Care in Stockport. There may be other services and support, but to collate this would exceed the appropriate limit.
