Designing New Ideas with the Mental Health Foundation

I have been looking back over the last year and I was reminded of a fantastic project which I haven't had a chance to share with you all! Last year The Mental Health Foundation began a project looking at the mental health of young people with long term conditions. As part of this project we are ran a series of events which brought young people together to creatively explore the well-being impacts of living with long term conditions and to brainstorm potential solutions to challenges they face.
 
I was invited along to the event to help creatively co-design  with the young people who were involved with the project. I also designed some activity templates and workshop tools to go along with the project- photographed here by Chris O'Sullivan.

The templates supported young people to create fictional characters who are like them- young people with long term conditions. They created these people in detail so we could use the characters to imagine what challenges or problems might be faced by people living with long term conditions and develop potential solutions.

We then went on to make 'cereal box' pitches about our potential solutions- here you can see one in progress!
