Following on from the postponement of our Belfast kick-off event, The Emerging Minds Network would like to invite you to a virtual webinar hosted by Emily Lloyd and Professor Cherie Armour specifically for colleagues based in Northern Ireland.

Emerging Minds is a mental health research network funded by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) with the aim of encouraging research across sectors and disciplines. We want to reduce the prevalence of mental health problems amongst children and young people through mental health promotion, prevention and early treatment.

The Emerging Minds network has a fund of £500,000 to share to enable research collaborations. We have prioritised 4 research challenges from the questions that young people, families, practitioners and policy makers have told us are most important and pressing. The purpose of these webinars is to kick start the next stage of the project.

The objectives of the meetings will be to:

- Introduce the Emerging Minds network.

- Share more details about the Emerging Minds funding calls to be launched in autumn 2019 and other opportunities.

- To prompt discussions around possible collaborations to address the Emerging Minds research challenges.

When you register you will be sent joining instructions to enable you to call in to the webinar by phone or using an internet connected device.

Please do contact Emily Lloyd at info@emergingminds.org.uk if you have any questions or to find out more.
