Improve Public Mental Health Services (CAMHS)
Improve the services that CAMHS provides. The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced a surge in mental health conditions within young adults and children, and a service like CAMHS is expected to support and aid these children, rather than push them aside and discharge them without proper reason.
"I was talked over, interrupted and patronised"
"My therapist disappeared without any notice and left me without help for months"
"I was put through CBT but my course was never finished"
Quotes like these should never have to leave a child's mouth - young adults all over the UK go to a service such as CAMHS to receive reassurance, support and aid for their mental health conditions. But, as you can see, CAMHS is not properly equipped to handle these children. Change needs to happen.
