Children and young people
Supporting our young people
Every young person deserves to grow up with an understanding of mental health.
Children and young people need the right support at the right time, in a way that suits their circumstances.
Along with our amazing supporters, we’ve been campaigning on this issue since 2017, and we won’t stop until every young person gets the information and support they need.
Thanks to our brilliant fundraisers and supporters. SAMH is delivering a programme of activity in schools, in colleges, and with specialist mental health teams across Scotland.
Lynsey and Hannah’s story
“Hannah is now 9 and a half, and we can now finally start accessing support for her and her siblings. If only CAMHS had seen her after that very first referral, then our struggles would have been eased more quickly.."
