Hello and welcome to the Coffee with your Therapist Podcast, the podcast where we talk with people, who have an interest in Mental Health, about their careers, their work, and the music they like, all in 20 minutes. This episode we talk to Manus Hanratty, about the impact of Social Media on children and young people. Manus and others have been campaigning to restrict access to Social Media by under 18s and there has been good progress in the past year.  Manus gives us an update on how he sees the situation now and he talks about the dangers of what AI can do. As part of his conversation Manus relates to us the tragic story of Jools Roome whose mother is campaigning for Jool’s Law, you can get details here: https://www.joolslaw.co.uk/ Manus wrote and sings the Outro Song in memory of Jools.
