The Mental Health Foundation’s Fundamental Facts on Mental Health in Northern Ireland report was last updated in 2016. There have been many changes in the factors impacting on mental health since 2016, and more recent statistics are now available.
This new report, in conjunction with Northern Ireland’s Mental Health Champion, brings together population data on mental health, the social determinants of mental health and key inequalities data.
Mental health is affected by numerous variables, in this report we have selected statistics to illustrate the main mental health challenges facing individuals, families, communities, and wider society.
