Local Assembly Member Paul Davies is supporting the new Time to Change Wales campaign for young people. The campaign, #WeCanWeWill aims to engage 14-25 year olds across Wales in a conversation about mental health. It’s understood that one in ten young people will be affected by mental health problems - that’s three people in the average classroom. The campaign encourages young people to come forward and talk about their mental health, thereby bringing everyone together in a bid to end stigma and discrimination.
Mr Davies said, “I’m pleased to give my support to such an important campaign. It’s crucial that we engage more with young people about mental health issues and the impact that some of these issues could have on them and the people around them. The #WeCanWeWill campaign is a great way to bring people together to talk about their experiences and I urge all young people in Pembrokeshire to get involved by joining the movement at http://themovement.timetochangewales.org.uk/”
