Body Image and Mental Health

Proceeding contribution from Bambos Charalambous (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 July 2019. It occurred during Debate on Body Image and Mental Health.

Obviously, the harm is done with young people early on, and they are very impressionable—we have mentioned reality TV, and the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee is looking at its impact. Does the Minister not think that we should try to teach positive body image at school and provide support at school for people who have concerns about their body image? That would be a wise investment of Government funds and would actually help young people to address their concerns and anxieties at every stage.
