consultation responses
YoungMinds regularly responds to a wide range of policy consultations on issues related to the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people.
We strive to put the voices of children and young people at the heart of decision making; last year, we consulted 2,934 children and young people through our VIK project, and shared these views with decision-makers at a national and local level. We also consult widely with professional bodies, sector experts and voluntary community organisations.
