What we want young people to do
If you are a young person (up to the age of 25), then we would like to get you to review six of the books on the longlist
All of these books contain issues that affect children and young people’s lives. You may find that you have experienced some of the issues described which could either help you or could possibly cause you some unhappy feelings.
Please make sure you have read the descriptions of all the books and the guidance notes on their content before you make your selection. If you start reading a book and you become upset or worried about what you are reading then please stop reading the book and let us know - healthyheads@youngminds.og.uk
There are only 15 places available, so apply as soon as you can so you don't miss out on an opportunity to receive a free book to review:
