Responsibility

We are living in an increasingly anxious society. I am sure that many of us have seen reports in the media about the mental health of young people today. Last summer, during lockdown, UK Universities saw at least one student die every week, all these sad cases were either traced back to mental illness, drug abuse or both. During my time in university chaplaincy a few years ago I was on the front line of this struggle to keep some of the most vulnerable students alive and healthy.
