Healthy Families Team - Text Advice Parentline

Nottinghamshire Healthcare’s Healthy Family Teams also have a text messaging service for parents and carers to access confidential health advice. The service does not replace face-to-face contact with Healthy Family Teams but aims to offer an alternative, accessible method of contact and a flexible way to provide support.

The text advice line operates Monday to Friday 9.00am - 4.30pm excluding bank holidays and uses the number 07520 619 919. Messages sent to the dedicated number are delivered to a secure website, and responded to by the Healthy Family Team. Texts are usually replied to within one working day. Automatic replies will be sent to any messages received out of hours explaining where to get help if your question is urgent, and when they you expect a response.
