Partnership between NHS Greater Manchester, Kooth and Transport for Greater Manchester shortlisted for the most impactful partnership in preventative healthcare category, HSJ awards.

The partnership ran an eye catching campaign for three months on the Metrolink network.

Called ‘Whatever’s on your mind’ the campaign promoted Kooth for children and young people and Qwell for adults. The campaign resulted in 34,000+ logins across Kooth and Qwell and a 36% increase in the numbers of new people registering with the services.

Greater Manchester was the first UK region to provide digital mental health support free to all residents. Accessible to approximately two million people across all the 10 localities of Greater Manchester, Kooth.com and Qwell.io offer a unique out of office hours’ provision that’s open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Both Kooth and Qwell are free, safe, and confidential, which means they provide a non-judgmental place for anyone to seek professional mental health support.

We wish everyone the best of luck for the awards ceremony in March.
