On this week's Mental Health Monday, Mick Coyle is joined by some of the team from the Merseyside organisation Comics Youth.

'Comics Youth was founded in 2015 and is a creative community organisation led by young people, for young people. [Their] aim is to empower youth across the Liverpool City Region to flourish from the margins of society: Harnessing their own narratives, finding confidence within an inclusive community, and developing the resilience to succeed on their own path.'

Rhiannon Griffiths, Bethany Gwynn-Adams & Mental Health Monday 'veteran' Emily McChrystal were on-hand to discuss how the organisation came out, shared their personal stories, and set out how anyone interested can get involved.

Originally broadcast November 18th 2019.
