Supporting young people’s mental wealth
On this episode of Let’s Talk Mental Health with Mel Noton, we’re joined by Jodie Lloyd-Jones from Oxfordshire Youth to discuss their work in the local community and the issues young people face in today’s workplace.

OY has three strands of work: Mental Health and Wellbeing, Building Skills for Life, and Sector Support – working with 150+ grassroots youth organisations to collectively provide support for over 26,000 young people in Oxfordshire.
