Life can be hard, but accessing support shouldn't be. By providing youth-led wellbeing and therapeutic support when it is needed, the Isle of Wight Youth Trust empowers young people to face life's challenges.
NHS research shows 1 in 6 children and young people have a mental health problem, that’s potentially 5 children and young people in the average classroom of 30.
On the Isle of Wight, this means 5,078 children and young people aged 4-25 may be struggling with their mental health at any one time.
With local need growing, and waiting times increasing, often young people’s needs become more complex and multifactorial. Half of all mental health problems are established by the age of 14, with the right support, as early as possible, the Youth Trust stands the chance of preventing over 2500 young people on the Island developing enduring mental health needs over their lifetime.
Our vision is for an Island where children and young people's mental health needs are well recognised and supported.
