Mental Health: why it matters and what we can do.

Natasha is particularly passionate about helping young people (plus their parents and teachers too!) and on making positive changes to the way the media covers issues relating to mental health.

This is a unique chance to hear Natasha’s inspiring story, to discover what really matters for good mental health and to join a growing movement of passionate people taking action to help put things right.
