Petition Action

Make mental illness as important as physical illness by increasing NHS funding.

Petition Details

We all know that when it comes to NHS cuts, the treatment of mental illness is always the first in line.

You wouldn't leave a broken leg for weeks before getting it fixed, so why do life threatening illnesses of the mind have little to no importance in our society?

More funds will save lives!

Additional Information

How many people could be saved if there were sufficient funding?
