Service detail

The Sutton Neurodevelopmental (ND) Needs One Stop Shop is a new pilot drop-in service for families in Sutton. It offers support and advice for children and young people aged between 5-18 who are experiencing challenges which may be related with a neurodevelopmental presentation (Autism or ADHD).

The types of challenges we can advise on include emotional difficulties, behavioural challenges, problems with sleep, friendship issues, sensory difficulties, attention and concentration difficulties, and hyperactivity and impulsivity.

Our health and care professionals at the one stop shop will be from a range of partners including South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust’s Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), London Borough of Sutton, Sutton Carers Centre, Playwise and Sutton Information Advice and Support Service (SIASS). We will all be able to provide information, advice and signposting to families to help you. We will also be able to help you access services to support your needs.

A few things to note

• The Sutton ND Needs One Stop Shop is a drop-in service with no need to book.
• Simply walk in and speak to us about what’s on your mind in a supportive and friendly environment.
• You are welcome to attend as a family, on your own or with other people who care for the young person, but while on site we ask that children are always accompanied.
• It doesn’t matter whether the child or young person you care for is already a patient with us, on a waiting list for assessment or treatment, or has had no contact with us before. All families that have neurodevelopmental concerns from Sutton are welcome.
• No diagnosis of a neurodevelopmental condition is needed to receive support from this service.
  Attending will not change your position on any existing waiting lists.
