3 years in a row we have now recorded an episode of chat chit on the hottest day of the year. This didnt stop us from having a great laugh recording this chaos though.

In this episode we have lovely representatives from the Mental health advisory group "Nothing about us without us". The group exists to improve mental health for young people across the whole of the Integrated care system, where alongside understanding what the priorities of the group are, we learn the benefits of coproduction not only to the creation and improvement of services but how getting involved individually has positively impacted their mental health.

These lot work tirelessly to better the system for their peers and you can hear the passion in the way they talk.

We start by talking about about formation of the group and then how they all got involved. We talk about the challenges faced by the group alongside some of their favorite moments and finally get down to the crux of what they would like to change about the system.

Enjoy.
