Young People and Mental Health

About the Issue

There are thousands of young people across the UK living with a range of mental health problems including depression, eating disorders or self-harming. Others may also experience long-term mental illness such as psychosis and schizophrenia. They need intensive support through services that not only look at ways of treating their mental health problems, but also deal with a range of issues such as housing, education and family problems.
