Additional Information:This article documents a new approach to youth participation in health policy development and hence contributes to current critical debates about the theory and practice of youth participation. One reviewer comments: ... an excellent piece of work ... demonstrating an articulate and sophisticated understanding of the multi-layered experience of young people, the pressures affecting their mental health and the policy context/gap. A service director involved in the process commented: '..a major challenge is engaging young people in public policy. I found this process exhilarating - young people fearlessly holding public bodies to account .. an innovative approach'
