Lay Summary :

There has been a steady increase in Child and Adolescent Mental Health service referrals (Children’s Commissioner, 2021), yet variable access to services which raises concern that not all are able to access support, especially in those who may already be disadvantaged. This study will investigate how referral source and sociodemographic information impact referral features (decision, waiting times and number of re-referrals) to child and adolescent mental health services.<br/>
