Lack of mental health help: 'I felt nobody cares'

Lack of mental health help: 'I felt nobody cares' The number of under-18s getting NHS help for mental health issues in England nearly halved in the first two months of lockdown.

Young people who weren't able to get support say they felt like they "didn't really matter".

Lucy, who's 17, says she she didn't know where to go for help.

The number of people in England referred to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) dropped 47% in April and May, compared with last year. BBC News
