Mental health advice for people under 21

If you’re struggling with your mental health, please don’t be afraid to talk about it. 

It’s nothing to feel ashamed about, and you’re not alone. Around one in four people in the UK have problems with their mental health each year.

We would suggest visiting the YoungMinds website for advice. 

They have a free, 24/7 crisis support service.
