Launchpad Magazine Second Issue

If I Were Prime Minister for a Week If I could make changes for just one week, here’s what I’d focus on: Support for the Homeless Instead of spending money on anti-homeless measures, I’d invest in providing safe accommodation and support for those experiencing homelessness. Reforming the Mental Health Act: Too many people, including myself, have been neglected or mistreated. This needs to change. In 2022, around 1 in 4 adults in the UK experienced a mental health problem, highlighting the need for better policies and care. Community Support for All I'd fund more community support groups and well-being activities for people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. Mental health should be taught in schools to help young people manage stress and anxiety from an early age. To anyone struggling with their mental health, please know that your feelings are valid. There’s no threshold you need to cross to "deserve" help. Even if it feels like you’re alone, you’re not. Remember that not every thought is a fact, and though the dark days may return, there are ways to cope. When you feel like letting go, hold on—you never know what the next day might bring. For more inspiring stories about mental health, you can follow me on social media, where I continue to raise awareness and oer support. Remember, you are not alone. For further resources and support, consider reaching out to the following mental health organisations in the UK:
