NHS Mental Health App

Last week, Year 12 Mental Health Champions and Science students participated in their first co-design workshop to design a mental health app.

The project is NHS-driven and aims to help suicide prevention in young people. The NHS, University of Liverpool and Citrus Suite, a local app developer, attended the workshop to oversee students during the design process. Students were given an overview of the project aims and current status and tasked with improving the app's usability and engagement, alongside considering their own app experiences. It was a thought provoking and insightful session as the app is targeted at their age group. Citrus Suite and the NHS collected the feedback from the session and will incorporate the suggested changes provided by our students. They will present their updates later this month and discuss the rollout plan. The students gave great feedback, particularly enjoying that they were being asked to shape the language, user interface, and flow of such a serious app for young people.
