We’re thrilled to share the new CoRAY Voices Podcast where Tori, Eve and Jenny interview Dr Polly Waite, a clinical psychologist, on how to encourage young people to seek help in managing their mental health. The podcast builds on our evidence-informed briefing from researchers and clinicians around encouraging children and young people to seek help & support if they are struggling with their mental health. A group of young people from the northeast examined the recommendations, and then worked with the CoRAY project team and Headliners (UK) to co-produce the CoRAY Voices Podcast. We are very grateful to the Medical Research Council and the Westminster Foundation for supporting this work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SK8-1kk07Zw&ab_channel=HeadlinersUK%20
