A discussion on young people\u2019s mental health and how to apply research knowledge to understand and support young people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

While mental health problems can affect us at any stage in our lives, 75% of people who experience mental health problems report that their problems first emerged before the age of 25. One in three children and young people in every classroom have a diagnosable mental health problem such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and self-harm. The COVID-19 pandemic has raised referral to NHS services to an unmanageable level. This group discussion event will provide an opportunity for attendees to discuss this important topic with a speaker with both research and clinical expertise on young people\u2019s mental health.<\/p>\n
