Immediately fund local services to prevent mental health pandemic

Petition Details

The government must immediately inject additional funding into local services to prevent a mental health pandemic. The government has already budgeted additional money for mental health services, as part of its long term plan. But it must now release the funding given the second wave of Covid-19.

Additional Information

Up to 10 million Brits could need mental health support after the pandemic ends,
According to the Centre for Mental Health charity in report released on October 2020. This estimate is expected to rise with increasing job losses expected. The Mind also reported an increase in demand for services as the NHS has struggled to accommodate the surge in people seeking help, while the charity has reported an increase in people who are experiencing suicidal thoughts. We must act now.
