Mental Health in Young People

Before Christmas I received one thousand letters from St Peter's Secondary School.

These letters detailed struggles they, and their peers, are having with their mental health. I spoke to the Prime Minister at PMQs to query what the government has planned to help stop this epidemic and how we are supporting struggling youths.

I also visited St Peter's to speak to the students directly and thank them for their letters.

I promise to work tirelessly to support all the young people in our constituency.
