Ensuring your family’s safety and well-being is the most important thing you can do for your children. You can find guidance on how to protect yourself and others from coronavirus on the Welsh Government website and suggestions on how to help support your children’s well-being in the sections below. You may also find the following information helpful if:

• your children receive free school meals: check how you can continue to get free school meals in your local authority area while schools are closed
• you need information in relation to vulnerable children and young people during the coronavirus pandemic

Children and young people not currently receiving counselling support, but who may benefit from counselling can access the service. If you have any questions about this contact your school or community based service direct
• you are looking for tools to help you manage your or your children’s well-being. There many free, mobile phone apps that can help that you can find on the NHS apps library
