About Right Here

Youth Panel members

Right Here is a £6m programme to radically change how we look after the mental health and wellbeing of young people aged 16 to 25 across the UK.

Through prevention and early intervention we want to reduce the number of young people developing mental health problems that could become lifelong conditions.

We are working with young people, frontline youth charities and mental health services in four local areas to develop new ways of providing support to those aged 16 to 25. We will find what works and seek to replicate this nationally to bring about change on a huge scale.


Young Person quote

"When I heard about Right Here, it was a project that seemed perfect to me in the sense of my ideas and the passion that I already hold for tackling mental health issues.

Needless, to say it has lived up to its name.  It's been a perfect opportunity for me to find out about the work that is already going on, meet other young people interested in mental health, and help four projects around the country to revolutionise mental health services and allow young people access to the services they truly need." 

Adam, member of the Right Here Youth Panel and Steering Group
