Mental Health: welfare to what?

Additional Information

We call upon the coalition to scrap their welfare to work arrangements and return to first principles. How can Chris Grayling et al Expect to be able to legislate effectively when he has no Empathy with these Citizens, when people are disenfranchised by the process? It does not work. 'There is a vital stepping-stone missing from the Government’s ‘welfare to work’ programme. This stone is the therapeutic support and meaningful activity that provides a transition and enables patients to engage fully with the nature of their diagnostic symptoms and restore their balance after what is a very disabling loss of reliability of their senses during psychotic episodes'. The legislation flies in the face of the needs of this sector to have smooth transitions to enable them to realistically prepare to participate in this exclusive society without fear.
