The Good Childhood® Forum: Mental Health and Well-being was a unique event for professionals to participate and engage with The Children's Society's national Good Childhood Inquiry, the first independent inquiry into what makes for a good childhood in the UK.
On the 21 April 2008 in London, the Good Childhood Forum released the evidence from the Good Childhood Inquiry's theme of health. This provided professionals, leading commentators and civil servants the rare opportunity to participate in an interactive forum about what mental health and well-being means for children in today's society.
The Good Childhood Inquiry panel, made up of leading experts and influencers, is reviewing evidence from over 10,000 people, including children. The Inquiry will combine their views and experiences with the findings of academic research, opening up a discussion about childhood that will be provocative and groundbreaking.
