Technical Summary
Swansea University (SU) has established an international reputation as a leader in health informatics, reflecting significant RCUK and Government investment (SAIL Databank, Farr, ADRC). Our ambition is to become a UK hub for data-driven, internationally-relevant research to improve children and young people’s mental health (MH). SU is particularly strong in population health research, data sharing platforms (e.g. UKSeRP), innovative governance and a collaborative ethos that underpins our many multidisciplinary research activities. Our key strengths in MH research lies in our advanced data science and informatics infrastructure and cross-disciplinary expertise.
Data science at SU has contributed much to MH research by linking diverse datasets for in-depth exploration of aetiology and the role of bio-psycho-social determinants of MH, bringing together cross-disciplinary research and data at scale, and solving problems inherent in standardisation and validation. This Award will build on our experience hosting the MQ Adolescent Data Platform, creating electronic and hybrid e-cohorts, phenotype validation, pharmaco epidemiology, and genetic and conceptual work. It will give widespread access to new Development and Well-Being Assessment and childhood maltreatment data, educational data linked to disorder-specific cohorts, health, environmental and social media data, and new partnerships with paediatricians, geographers, computer scientists and psychiatrists.
We aim to extend our expertise through studies with focussed validation and preparation of novel data and high quality transferable metadata, making future MH informatics studies more deeply phenotyped and more efficiently executed. In short, we will place children and young people within settings that may influence their MH using electronic data to better understand the causes of the causes. We will achieve this through up to eight studies to address the key challenges of mental health informatics.

| Title | Be Heard video |
| Description | Using the computer software, Videoscribe, a video was created to describe the BeHeard initiative and attract more young people to complete the survey. This was shared on the website and social media. |
| Type Of Art | Film/Video/Animation |
| Year Produced | 2019 |
| Impact | The video raised awareness of our BeHeard initiative through delivering information in an engaging way, and helped us to achieve 4000 completed surveys. |
| Title | Data anonymisation |
| Description | The process of data anonymisation was explained in simple terms in this video by a student, and pitched towards other young people, in order to aid understanding. |
| Type Of Art | Film/Video/Animation |
| Year Produced | 2019 |
| Impact | The video was shared on the website and social media, as well as at the Swansea Science Festival 2019. This video helped to raise awareness of the platform and the secure processes that we have in place to protect data. |
| Title | World Suicide Prevention Day 2019, International Youth Day 2019 and World Mental Health Day 2019 videos |
| Description | I created videos using the online software, Adobe Spark, detailing the aims, objectives and achievements of the Adolescent Mental Health data Platform, and how our research is so important in making a difference. |
| Type Of Art | Film/Video/Animation |
| Year Produced | 2019 |
| Impact | Our Twitter followers have increased from 550 in June 2019, to 1250 in February 2020.

| Description | Mental Healthcare in Young People and Young Adults |
| Geographic Reach | Local/Municipal/Regional |
| Policy Influence Type | Influenced training of practitioners or researchers |
| Impact | The recently published Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) report on Mental Healthcare in Young People and Young Adults identifies areas of care that can be improved. The findings in the reports presented reinforce the message that the parity of esteem between mental healthcare and physical healthcare services is often still not present. However, the data do recognise the crucial role that acute general hospitals play in the complex system required to deliver mental healthcare. If mental healthcare in general hospitals is not given a higher priority then general hospitals and the staff who work in them will never be equipped to manage mental healthcare effectively. The report recommends the development of national guidance outlining the expectation required in the care of children and young people with mental health conditions. |

| Description | Responding to issues of self-harm and thoughts of suicide in young people |
| Geographic Reach | Local/Municipal/Regional |
| Policy Influence Type | Influenced training of practitioners or researchers |
| Impact | This guidance provides information for adults who work with children and young people regarding how to respond to issues of suicide and self-harm. It addresses how to ask questions of children and young people who may have suicidal feelings or be self-harming, and how to respond to disclosure of these feelings and behaviours. It provides guidance on confidentiality, safeguarding and routes of escalation. The guidance has been produced to support teachers, and other professionals who regularly come into contact with children and young people, in dealing with issues of suicide and self-harm as they arise. It supports early intervention and prevention and the safe management of self-harm and suicidal thoughts in young people when they present. |

| Impact | The Wolfson Centre for Young People's Mental Health, based at Cardiff University and working with Swansea University, will be a dedicated interdisciplinary research centre where Cardiff and Swansea University experts will work in partnership with, Welsh Government, NHS Wales, University Health Boards and schools across Wales. The Wolfson Centre will have five work streams: population health (Collishaw), genetics (Thapar), early intervention (Rice), schools (Murphy and Moore) and 'big data' (John), which will influence government policy and practice. Prof Ann John will be managing the 'Big Data' aspect of the project, in order to use a wide range of routinely-collected data in research, to understand and develop new ways of reducing anxiety and depression in young people. |
