YOUNG people in Southampton are losing hope for their long-term future, research has revealed. New figures from city charity No Limit has shown that 82 per cent of young people are worried about their long-term future with only 17.5 per cent thinking that the pandemic hadn’t had a negative impact on their life chances. Although 65 per cent felt their emotional wellbeing had worsened in the first lockdown, a third also believed that the ‘new normal’ had lead to further problems, raising concerns at the charity that both this lockdown and what comes next will have a significant impact on many young people’s mental health.
