A UNIVERSITY student from Wrexham who has battled anxiety since his teenage years is urging young people with mental health worries to reach out for help through a new support service.
Jay Roberts, 22, is among a team of volunteers who will be offering support to vulnerable young people in the future through a new Community Hub in Pwllheli, run by youth charity GISDA.
The pilot project, funded by Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) as part of its successful I CAN mental health and wellbeing programme, has been launched in response to spiralling levels of anxiety, depression and other mental health issues among young people during the pandemic.
