e-wellbeing Youth Research Projects
Welcome to our Youth Research Hub!
Here at e-wellbeing, we are passionate about youth wellbeing, and we’re putting young people at the forefront of mental health research with our new Youth Research Project!
We've teamed up with the National Institute for Health and Care Research (Kent, Surrey, and Sussex) to develop three youth research projects. These projects will be led by young people, and will address issues that young people feel are important for improving youth wellbeing.

Project 1 & 2: Belonging and Loneliness
Youth Researchers decided to focus Project 1 and 2 on the topic of Belonging and Loneliness, and how this impacts youth mental health in Sussex.
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, children and young people have experienced increased feelings of loneliness and isolation, and across the UK there has been an rise in mental health difficulties for children and young people. KSS and e-wellbeing Youth Researchers wanted to explore this, with the aim of making meaningful change in their local area.
