Children's mental health is always a topic that everyone should be aware of. However, due to the impact of the COVID pandemic, we believe now more than ever that the young people in our lives need our support.

YoungMinds is the UKs leading charity fighting for a future where all young minds are supported and empowered, whatever the challenges. They are here to make sure children and young people get the best possible mental health support and have the resilience to overcome life's difficulties. The crisis in children and young peoples mental health is real and it is urgent. More children and young people than ever before are reaching out for help with their mental health. But for those who take that brave step, help is much too hard to find. YoungMinds are changing this. They're fighting for young peoples mental health. Join their fight.
