Harrow Young Adult Mental Health Partnership | 2022-2025 Learning Report
This report presents key insights, learning and outcomes from the three-year delivery of the Harrow Young Adult Mental Health Partnership. The report highlights what worked well and where improvements can be made. These shared learnings aim to deepen our understanding of the diverse needs of young adults and inform more tailored, effective service delivery—helping to shape future support with greater impact.
A core component of this partnership was to increase collaboration between front-line community organisations and NHS partners. The service delivery organisations’ approach continued to prioritise early intervention, co-production, and tailored support for diverse needs. A focus was placed on outreach to underserved groups, expansion of peer support, and strengthening referral pathways.
The programme supported over 360 young people from a wide range of ethnicities, identities and life circumstances.
The two main aims of the programme were:
- To build partnerships between the NHS and organisations that support young adult mental health.
- To improve young adult (aged 16-25) mental health and well-being through one or all of the following:
- Addressing inequalities
- Better identifying unmet need
- Improving equality of access to early intervention and wellbeing support
- Engagement and navigation of support
