If you're in #LocalGov #comms can you help with this enquiry? @MandyPearse produces reports that delve deep into data in a way that many teams don't have the time to do & are very useful to all as a result 👇

As much as seeing & hearing myself makes me cringe 😬 We really need more young people to join #health studies in #Scotland to make research relevant to their lives & needs.
Sadly only 1% of our members are under 18 😢 gen.scot

We have a lovely little seed fund thanks to @EdinUniMentalH to work alongside young people aged 12-18 to explore how we could grow a #mentalhealth youth forum together to help research. If you’re interested or know young people who might be, feel free to pass on my details ☀️🌱

Some stark findings here on the impact of cost of living - some young people are struggling to accept work down to the associated costs
We've launch the 2024 The Prince’s Trust @NatWestGroup Youth Index. The research shows poor mental health & the cost of living crisis are having a significant impact on young people’s employment and aspirations for the future. Read more on The @guardian ➡️ brnw.ch/21wGu5m

Thank you everyone for getting this to 9,000 signatures tonight. Now let’s get it to 10,000 & force the Government to respond. It’s time to end a tragic miscarriage of justice which has already taken so many lives
