NOTTS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT is back with a brand new episode and what a fascinating one it is. We're joined by Paul Crawford, professor of health humanities at the University of Nottingham to discuss mental health, especially in young people. Join us as Paul talks about his collaboration with Wallace and Gromit creators Aardman Animation - the Whatsupwitheveryone project - that offers a fantastic resource for young people looking for help when it comes to the issues they may be facing. We also discuss the pandemic and lockdown and the impacts on mental health resulting from this life-changing situation - and Paul tells us about how writing a book with his son helped him get through lockdown. Plus Paul talks about the importance of compassion - not only to others but to ones self.

Check out this fascinating and insightful conversation as we welcome Professor Paul Crawford as our guest for Episode 46 of NOTTS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
