The Muslim Youth Helpline (MYH) is an award-winning registered charity which provides pioneering faith and culturally sensitive services to Muslim youth in the UK. The helpline service is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year including Bank Holidays and Eid.
Faith and Culturally sensitive support by phone, live chat, WhatsApp or email. We offer non-judgmental, confidential support 7 days a week, 365 days a year including bank holidays and Eid.
The absence of faith and culturally sensitive support services from mainstream providers and the culture of taboo and condemnation that surrounds youth issues in the Muslim community means young people in the UK have nowhere to turn for support and often endure their problems in silence.
For too many young British Muslims, the feeling of never quite belonging and having to meet conflicting social expectations creates despair during the formative years of adolescence. In a community where most social issues are a cultural taboo, increasing numbers of young people are resorting to self-harm and substance abuse for escape, and mental health problems appear disproportionately higher.
