#HelloYellow

On Friday 9 October 2020, thousands of schools, offices and community groups took part in #HelloYellow for World Mental Health Day.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part! Whether you dressed in yellow, took a yellow selfie, held a virtual event or had a yellow-filled day at school, you came together and showed young people they're not alone with their mental health. Lockdown has had a devastating effect on children and young people's mental health. It's been unbelievably hard, but thanks to the vital funds so many of you raised, we can continue to fight for young people's mental health at a time it's needed most. 

Share your #HelloYellow photos with us. We want to see your friends, your class, or colleagues all dressed up in yellow!

Whether it’s your amazing banana costume, or your yellow events and activities, take a photo, post on social media using #HelloYellow, and tag us at @youngmindsuk.

Here are just some of your brilliant pictures from #HelloYellow 2020!
