Wellbeing.

Currently in England, an estimated 1.25 million children and young people have a diagnosed mental health difficulty. This is equivalent to one in eight young people. The effects of living with a mental health difficulty are both profound and pervasive, as it infiltrates many areas of a young person’s life, affecting their confidence, performance at school and their prospects of finding work. Without help and support, this can even lead to individuals taking their own lives. One in four young people who experience mental health difficulties have self-harmed or attempted suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of young people.
