GP Pilot Project Learnings

With Fullscope’s 1 year GP project now drawn to a close, we reflect on what we’ve learned and what’s coming next.

Working with two PCNs, our GP pilot project saw 67 young people with mild-moderate mental health or wellbeing issues referred for a single-session of support with an experienced therapist - by phone/video call - and made quickly (within two weeks).

What did we learn?

Evidence clearly shows that our pilot has provided a simple but effective model of an alternative way to respond to mild-moderate need.   It indicates that with small, resource efficient input, there is positive impact for both children/ young people and their families – and professionals.

What next?

Going forward, we recommend that the factors identified in our final report are at the forefront of discussions about ways in which the learning can be applied, and the model further adapted and implemented.
