Leaders Unlocked has been working in the Health sector since 2016. Our work enables young people to play a leadership role influencing strategic decisions, provision and research in relation to young people’s health and well being.

Subsequently in 2019, MH:2K was also adopted in Derby and Derbyshire. Read More
