Poor mental health makes it harder to find work, and being out of work negatively impacts mental health. Thousands are trapped in this seemingly hopeless cycle, without the self-belief or support to make positive steps to take back their futures. Recent reports show that almost ¼ of unemployed young people believe their life will amount to nothing, no matter how hard they try. While entering employment is part of the solution, this reality feels unattainable for those struggling the most.
