Tanya Marwaha
from Leadership Letters
Tanya Marwaha is a young person that decided to pioneer youth mental health awareness during the pandemic from her bedroom by founding a youth-led peer community Championing Youth Minds. She has struggled with her mental health from a young age after developing long-term disabilities, Fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Navigating mental health support as a young female in the South Asian community has especially been a challenge due to the stigma and superstitions attached to mental health, therefore she advocates for mental health education and suicide prevention to recognise the intersectionality of identities and cultural factors.
