Just Talk

Just Talk is a multi-agency campaign, steered by young people.

In 2017, a group of professionals from various agencies in Hertfordshire came together to discuss the issue that current mental health services, projects and campaigns were better meeting the needs of girls than boys.

As a result of this meeting, extensive research and consultation took place with young people across Hertfordshire.

The Just Talk campaign was born.
