Young people will be asked about their perceptions of mental health services, levels of mental health awareness and the effects of stigma, in a nationwide survey of black and black mixed-race young people.

Black and black mixed-race young people aged between 12 and 18 living in the UK will be able to share their views and experiences in survey until 16 June.
The project aims to gather information directly from young people about mental health services, after previous research has shown that black young people are less likely to access earlier preventative mental health support, according to the Centre for Mental Health.
