Summary
YoungMinds is the UK's leading charity committed to improving the emotional wellbeing and mental health of children and young people. Help us to help children and young people lead happy lives.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Thousands of children are isolated, unhappy, have eating disorders, self harm and commit suicide - one in three children in every classroom has a diagnosable mental health problem.
How will this project solve this problem?
We give young people a voice, help them to develop emotional resilience, support them in raising awareness about the vital importance of good mental health and in campaigning for better services.
Potential Long Term Impact
By raising awareness of the vital importance of mental health and providing services to young people and their parents we will reduce the suffering of children and young people and enable them to lead happier, productive lives.
Project Message
Action must be taken now to educate children and young people about mental health and the profoundly negative effects of stigma.
