Using Kooth’s data, this paper explores the impact of the pandemic on service access and presenting concerns and whether differences were observed by sociodemographic characteristics in terms of access (gender, ethnicity and deprivation).

Changes to digital mental health use during COVID-19

This report utilised data from the first five months of this pioneering pilot demonstrates the value, as well as the need, in having Kooth available as a digital mental health and wellbeing service across whole-school districts in Pennsylvania. Key education-based stakeholders in school districts involved in this pilot program have reiterated the increasing mental health needs of their students, which outstrip the current resource in many of their schools, and alongside leading academics, have shown support for Kooth as a digital platform to provide mental health and wellbeing support to their students. This report provides early evidence around how Kooth can (1) improve access to mental health and wellbeing services, (2) reduce the need for downstream intervention with early help, (3) enable the use of other services, and (4) impact the school system, at a student and organisational level.
