Harrogate College partners with healthwatch to hear young people’s experiences of mental health and wellbeing

Harrogate College is working with Healthwatch North Yorkshire to hear from young people about their experiences of local health services.

The aim is to help influence services provided and understand how they can be improved to make them better for young people across the county.

Students are being asked about their experiences of mental health and wellbeing and how they’re being impacted, particularly as a result of the Covid-19 restrictions.

A survey has been launched this month and discussions will be taking place in February to better understand what young people are facing and what could help them.

Feedback gathered will be shared with a range of organisations, including Tees Esk Wear Valleys NHS Trust, the local mental health service provider which is keen to hear young people’s views.

Any students or young people who would like to submit their feedback can do so here Your mental health and wellbeing Survey (surveymonkey.co.uk)
