To mark the World Mental Health Day on 10 October 1999 the Health Education Authority introduced a new Website to promote self-esteem and positive coping strategies for teenagers. The site — www.uzone.org.uk — gives practical advice, deals with mental health issues in a down-to-earth way and is highly interactive, with prizes which include Positive Steps 2000: Surviving the New Millennium, a booklet with celebrity contributions giving tips on dealing with stress. Features of the site include a maze, e-mail postcards to send to a friend and a ‘boyzone’ and ‘girlzone’.
