Receiving treatment for your mental health can be a difficult and scary time for anyone. For some, this may also mean spending time in a psychiatric hospital.

Many don't realise that children and young people sometimes need treatment in hospital too.

Deck the Wards is a small charity providing boxes of home comforts, small luxuries and distracting items to children and young people staying in psychiatric inpatient care.  We want to make hospital feel a bit less like hospital, and a bit more like home. 

When you're scared, bored or lonely, it's these little things that can really make a difference. ​
