The Children's Society said it was 'sad' the service would no longer run due to funding ending.
A service that has helped thousands of young people with mental health issues is to close after losing its NHS funding.
Beam supports young people aged under 25 who are waiting for treatment, and has been "vital," the charity says. "Every week we get people coming in who’ve self-harmed, attempted suicide, they’ve been referred to crisis services and they get discharged after a certain amount of time. It’s just open, they know we’re here,” Ms Dyke said.The Children's Society said it was sad to be closing the Shropshire BEAM service, which began in 2017
“We thank The Children’s Society for the role its Beam and Wellbeing Zone services have played in supporting children, young people and their families in Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin as part of the BeeU partnership," it stated.
