Chat Health is a text messaging service that allows people aged 11-19 to message a school nurse for advice on a range of issues.

Texts will be responded to by the Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust’s school nursing team within one working day.

The service is available Monday to Friday, 9am – 4.30pm excluding bank holidays. Outside of these hours, an automated message is sent with advice on where to get help if the question is urgent.

The service also provides more information about accessing other local services including getting help with emotional health, weight management and healthy relationships.

Students who have used the ChatHealth service said “I liked using ChatHealth because it’s less embarrassing, easy, confidential and anonymous.”
