Childline annual review 2015-16

"Mental health and wellbeing issues continue to be the main reason why children and young people contact us, with one in three counselling sessions about this topic. Most worryingly, we’re seeing increases in the most serious mental health problems. This year we provided over 19,000 counselling sessions with young people who were thinking about or planning suicide" 

"At the same time, we’ve seen an 87 per cent increase in the number of counselling sessions where children and young people talked to us about struggling to access appropriate professional support locally especially for mental health problems, some of which were linked to their experiences of abuse. This follows an increase of 124 per cent in the previous year."
