Labour — Shipley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 June 2026

Debate

Youth Mental Health Support

Contribution

I am sure that the Minister will have heard my hon. Friend’s remarks and will take on board the information and testimony that he has provided. Our young people deserve to be given the best chance to grow up healthy and happy. Sadly, too many are not given that chance. That requires action across Government to ensure timely access to NHS services, a thriving youth sector in every community and a safer online environment so that kids can spend more time enjoying life in the real world rather than the virtual one. The Tories tore down the social infrastructure that supported young people in dealing with mental health issues. The safety net was cut and our children fell through the gaps. It falls to Labour to repair it and I look forward to hearing the Minister’s response.
