e-wellbeing Youth Research Projects
Welcome to our Youth Research Hub!
Here at e-wellbeing, we are passionate about youth wellbeing, and we put young people at the forefront of mental health research with our Youth Research Projects!
We've teamed up with the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR ARC KSS), West Sussex Mind, YMCA Dialogue, and West Sussex County Council to develop our youth research projects. These projects are led by young people, and address issues that young people feel are important for improving youth wellbeing.
