Spending the Prize Money:
I would make a video of mental health nurses sharing what they do, how they do it and the difference it makes to people’s lives. I’d share how important talking about mental health is, and let them know the qualities that mental health nurses rely on. And I’d send that video freely to every school, college and youth group.
