This roundtable is hosted by Parenting UK and WAVE Trust to explore supporting families with mental health problems. 154,000 children in England live with a parent who has a severe and enduring mental health problem and children living in households where a parent has a severe mental health problem are more likely to live in poverty (Family Action).
