Limitless is a non-profit organisation that provides mental health support and therapy for youths aged 12-25, as well as public education and training for youths, parents, educators, and professionals. In addition to research and advocacy, Limitless runs a mental health support helpline, provides ongoing counselling and casework services, career guidance support, and group outreach programmes for youths who have limited or no access to mental health services. Over the past year, Limitless has seen a sharp increase in the number of young people seeking support. The number has grown from 373 in 2020 to over 650 so far in 2021. With this significant jump in cases, Limitless is currently struggling to find sufficient funding to expand their clinical team.
