A new website designed to improve access to mental health support for young people has launched across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

www.Kooth.com, a free, confidential counselling service, provides mental health self-help information and support online for people aged between 11 and 19.

Young people can chat to counsellors on the website from noon to 10pm Monday to Friday, and from 6pm to 10pm at weekends, 365 days a year, and join in on forums with young people experiencing similar challenges.
