A big thank you to our partners National Academy for Social Prescribing, Southbank Centre, Prudence Trust and @uclenterprise.bsky.social, all our fantastic speakers including @danhayesphd.bsky.social and @lousticp.bsky.social, plus attendees in the room and online in the UK and internationally 🌍
Thanks so much ASPIRE (Australian Social Prescribing Institute of Research and Education) for allowing me to share my keynote reflections on youth social prescribing: learning from the UK on practice and research
@ucl-sbb.bsky.social
Youth mental health difficulties have increased in prevalence (rather than better awareness) and key drivers likely include economic precarity, smartphone use, sleep quality and closure of youth services. An excellent piece of research led by @olademk.bsky.social
Very important report out today from the Youth Futures Foundation exploring factors accounting for escalating mental health problems in young people. Lead by fantastic colleagues from the University of Manchester (@olademk.bsky.social et al). Report here: youthfuturesfoundation.org/what-we-do/f...
First plenary: Tom Osborne: Accessible, community-based youth mental health at scale: what can Africa teach us?
Kicking off #ESCAP with some jazz
After a long and quite traumatic train journey, have just arrived in #Strasbourg for the #ESCAP conference. Looking forward to some interesting talks #child and on #youth #mentalhealth, catching up with colleagues and some great French food and wine in a stunning location
Excited to announce that I have been appointed to Principal Research Fellow within @ucl-sbb.bsky.social. It’s an honor to work at such a great university with wonderful colleagues and a fantastic team. Very much looking forward to all the new social prescribing work we have planned.
