Hear the perspectives of young black men and help them to access services - The We Tell You research report and manifesto

The We Tell You research report explores explanations to why black men do not access mental health services.

It is the result of a three-year study with 26 young peers who, supported by Manchester based mental health charity 42’nd Street and the Manchester Metropolitan University, spoke to 78 young black men aged between 13 – 24 across Greater Manchester.

The research was informed by focus groups and one-to-one interviews to understand black male perspectives of local mental health services and has co-produced 14 key findings.

The results are presented in a research report and manifesto with the key findings supported by eight suggested recommendations.
