BOND’s shared principles
• Intervening early has been shown to reduce escalation to
a crisis and achieve improved outcomes;
• increased learning and educational attainment
• Behaviour and school attendance
• better physical health,
• improved long term mental health
• reduced health and social care costs.
• Voluntary and community organisations have an important
role to play in providing effective, high quality early
intervention services as they are local, flexible, trusted,
informal and friendly.
Why is it important….
• One in ten children and young people have a clinically recognised
mental disorder.
• Mental illness is the single largest cost to the NHS at £10.4 billion
(10.8% of the NHS budget) - wider costs in England amount to £105.2
billion a year.
• Half of lifetime cases of diagnosable mental illnesses begin by age 14
(¾ by mid 20’s).
• Improved availability of early intervention services for C&YP could
prevent 25–50% of adult mental illness.
• Economic returns of early childhood intervention programmes exceed
cost by an average ratio of 1:6.
Risk factors - mental health
• Adverse childhood experiences - 12 times more at risk of attempting
suicide, 10 times of injecting drug use,7 times of being an alcoholic, 4
times of being depressed or illicit drug use.
• Violence and abuse - A history of child abuse increases the risk of
lifetime prevalence of depression by 1.8- 2.7 times for women and 1.62.6 times for men
• Looked After Children - 8 times more likely to develop conduct disorder,
3 times an emotional disorder and 7 times a hyperkinetic disorder. Up-to
5 times more likely to attempt suicide.
• Poor education - Leaving school <15 years old, 2.5 times more at risk.
• Urban environment - Lack of social support increases the risk by 2 fold,
lack of green spaces by 80%
• Unemployment - Economically inactive -up to 5.5 times more at risk
• Fuel poverty – 2.3 million vulnerable people live in fuel poverty in the
UK, cold homes increase the risk of depression by 50%
• Recently released prisoners - are 35 times more likely to commit
suicide if they are female and 8 times if they are male, young offenders
18 times more likely.

WHAT WILL BOND DO?
Contribute to the development and increase of early intervention mental health
services provided by VCSOs - high quality, offering choice, value for money and
evidence based effective interventions
• Develop and disseminate quality standards and accreditation
• Gather and share examples of what works in practice e.g. road shows, learning
from TAMHS.
• Five pilots across the country to offer bespoke support and explore what will
help, test approaches etc
• Share the learning from the pilots nationally, via training and information
exchanges
• Develop practical tools and methods
• Provide targeted support nationally to BME organisations and providers of
services to the most vulnerable children and young people, including looked
after children and those at risk of offending.

evidence based early intervention mental health services for
CYP&F
• Bring national expertise and information

Guarantee VCSOs that they will be commissioned more!
Guarantee successful bidding!
Provide funding for services
Tell commissioners which VCSOs are best!

Early Intervention
‘We need help and support early on – not when
it’s too late. We want more trained workers we can
talk to, who will look out for us and our needs and
we want to be taught how to be emotionally
healthy and look after ourselves’
Sarah, 14, from VIK, was abused from a young age and bullied at school.
She was excluded from the classroom for her ‘disruptive’ behaviour, which made her feel
unworthy, unwanted and bad when all she really wanted was ‘for someone to notice my
distress and help me’
