    Having nothing to do can lead people into alcohol, drug etc addiction.

      Boredom. Nothing to do. No reason to get up and leave the house.

          Need to apply the 'no wrong door policy' more in the community to show people that there is support available to support their mental health.

                Lack of free services for people to be able to afford to get out of the house. If people can't afford to go to certain things, they will just stay home.

                    The whole of society has been affected and we haven't even seen the whole impact this has had yet.

                      Young people missed out so much during covid and now they aren't ready to move on in school etc as they missed their formative years in lockdown
