The 2023 Sussex Youth Summit brought together around 80 representatives from education, voluntary and community sector, local authorities, NHS, as well as young people with lived experience – to further progress plans for improving community-based emotional wellbeing and mental health services and support for people aged 16 to 25.

We are working together across Sussex to design a “whole system approach” to the mental health and emotional wellbeing pathway of care for young people (aged 16-25) – supporting their transition into adulthood and adult services or support.

The work focuses on improving transitions, early intervention and prevention, with evidence-based initiatives.
