Remember that it's okay to ask for help, reaching out is a sign of strength. If you need someone to talk to, consider calling a helpline like the Samaritans on 116 123, or texting SHOUT to 85258. Take things one day at a time and remember that brighter days are ahead. Take care and stay strong!" Includes Youth Mental Health Day branding and Bradford Institute for Health Research logo.
