The main focus of my research is on how to improve access to mental health interventions for children and adolescents. I have a particular interest in school-based mental health interventions and each year since 2019 my team has been running the OxWell Student Survey in order to better understand what school pupils need and what. In 2021 we collected data on over 30,000 young people from 180 schools across 10 regional authorities. We work closely with young advisors to ensure that our findings are shared with pupils. We have recently started working on our new Brainwaves project- an ambitious plan to better understand adolescent mental health trajectories, needs and approaches to interventions.
