Charity MindFull calls for schools to teach mental health classes

Lessons on mental health should be conducted in all schools, campaigners have said.

A survey by the charity MindFull suggests that an increasing number of young people are suffering from anxiety and depression, with almost a third of under-16s having thought about or attempted suicide.

The charity is launching a web-based mental health service for young people to tackle the problem.
