HeadMeds shortlisted for Third Sector Award

The YoungMinds HeadMeds website has been shortlisted in the Brand Development category of this year’s Third Sector Awards.

We would like to congratulate everyone who has been involved in this innovative project funded by Comic Relief and the Nominet Trust. The HeadMeds website, which gives young people access to reliable information about the 21 most common mental health medications, was launched in March 2014 and several of our members were involved in developing and reviewing the content.

YoungMinds report an overwhelming response to HeadMeds  from young people, who particularly like the real stories. "Teachers, CAMHS workers, support workers and the general young people’s workforce have also told us that HeadMeds is really valuable as an accessible learning resource, helping them to better support young people going through the experience of taking medications."
