Hull’s Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Research

Mental health difficulties and substance use can be significant barriers to education, training and employment, particularly for young people facing both challenges. The University of Hull's Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Research is addressing this through research that improves support for young people who are often excluded from services. Backed by £11 million from the National Institute for Health and Care Research, the Centre is working with young people, carers and service providers to improve access to support. By helping young people overcome barriers to recovery and wellbeing, this research aims to support greater participation in education and employment.
