The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on young people, disrupting education, routines, hobbies and peer interactions and there is concern for longer term effects on physical and mental health outcomes. Young people living with chronic health conditions face additional challenges including reduced or no face-to-face contact with medical teams, shielding and the increased stressors of being in ‘at-risk’ groups and social isolation.

Despite the technology being available, uptake and evidence for online groups is limited. This article shares learnings from a paediatric and adolescent psychology service delivering online groups for young people with chronic health conditions and their healthcare teams. Ideas for how to transfer group process to online platforms are considered, with examples and

TGD adolescents (aged 13 to 17 years) are estimated to make up approximately 0.7% of the US population. There is evidence that TGD individuals are at increased risk of mental health problems relative to cisgender (the gender you identify with is the same as the gender you were assigned at birth) peers. Silveri MM et al [ JAMA Network Open 2021;4:e2113637. doi: 10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2021.13637 ] have examined mental health outcomes among TGD versus cisgender adolescents in a residential mental health treatment programme.
