Roman Kemp: The Fight for Young Lives
Roman Kemp strives to move the conversation from encouraging young people to talk about their mental health to making sure they are properly supported when they speak out.
On a daily basis, Roman Kemp is contacted by young people who are struggling. With people turning to him for advice, he’s questioning whether or not there is a worsening mental health crisis and asking if these young people should be offered more support in their own communities.
This documentary follows Roman as he immerses himself in schools, youth centres and treatment settings around the country, meets with experts and charities, and visits the Houses of Parliament to try to understand the potential solutions for improving the mental health of young people in the UK today.
