THE CHANGE WE WANT TO SEE

From ‘Young Minds’ .. Supporting young people in your community

Last week, two YoungMinds Activists, Sian and Ash, were invited to 10 Downing Street to join a discussion about young people’s mental health. In front of the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, and the Mental Health Minister, Gillian Keegan, as well as a host of other important people, Sian and Ash courageously shared their own stories of struggling with their mental health and battling to get the support they needed.

The Prime Minister was visibly moved by what he heard and expressed interest in learning more about our call for early support hubs. This was a big step forward in our campaigning work, and everyone at YoungMinds is so proud of how well Sian and Ash spoke and advocated for young people’s mental health. We will be in touch with actions you can take to support our campaigning work again soon, so keep an eye on your inbox.
