Healthy Futures

Healthy Futures Calderdale has introduced a new way for school-aged children and young people and families to access advice and support about any physical health or emotional wellbeing concerns. 

ChatHealth is an NHS-approved secure and confidential text messaging service.

To access ChatHealth, TEXT 07480 635297 (young people) or 07507 332157 (parents/carers) to start a conversation.

From 9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday, we have experienced clinicians waiting to help.  Messages outside this time frame will receive an automated response letting you know when you will receive a reply, and who to contact to get immediate help.

Texts will cost the same as a standard text or will come out of your contract message allowance.

Healthy Futures Calderdale specialist teams can support families with things like: sleep, bullyinghealthy eatingallergiescontinencesafeguardingsexual healthbehavioural problemsemotional wellbeingrelationshipsdrugs and alcoholbereavementpuberty and growing upcomplex health needs, and body worries, and can signpost or refer on to other services as appropriate.
