Iris Project

WYA, in partnership with Walsall Primary Health Care Trust, worked with a group of young mental health service users to develop two leaflets, one for young people and one for their carers.

These leaflets encourage young people to seek help earlier if they have concerns about their mental health, explaining that there is often a better prognosis with early intervention, and listed sources of information, services and support. The group highlighted their own experiences and challenged the stigma attached to mental health issues.
