Speak your Mind

Our 2016/17 national campaign, Speak Your Mind, focused on improving mental health support and services for young people in Scotland. This outreach session has been developed on the back of this campaign, with a focus on raising awareness of mental health problems and empowering young people to talk positively about mental health. 

The session aims to increase participants’ understanding of mental health, to tackle the negative stigmas which still surround the topic, empower young people to speak out about their own mental health and to reach out to others who may need help.

We also signpost participants to youth-friendly resources and services that are available outside SYP.  This session runs for 55 minutes and has the option to be extended with additional activities. The maximum group size for this session is 30 participants.
