Understanding young people’s mental health priorities in Northwest London: a survey made for young people, by young people

The NHS is changing and to help build a better health service fit for the future we have created a 2-part survey for all young people in Northwest London to have your say on the important questions in young people’s mental health research, and to help us understand access to support – your responses will be shared with decision makers and will help services become more ‘youth-informed’.


If you are aged 14-25 and live, study or are associated with any of the eight Northwest London boroughs and want to have you say, please complete our survey – details below.


Who are we?
We are the Young People’s Advisory Group (YPAG), a group of 14-25 year olds from Northwest London who advise on young people’s mental health for a research group and mental health network called the ARC Outreach Alliance (AOA) at Imperial College London.


We stand for:
Being ourselves
Diversity
Letting young people know they are not alone
Ensuring young people’s voices are heard and considered
Being welcoming and supportive
A shared direction
Making a tangible impact

Here are some instructions for the survey:
The first part includes short form questions with a range of yes or no options and rating scales. This section has 12 questions and takes approximately 5 minutes to complete.


The second part involves longer, open-ended questions where we would like you to type your thoughts. This section has 10 questions and takes approximately 10 minutes to complete.
