As part of Health Education schools are already required to teach students about mental wellbeing, including how to recognise the early signs of mental wellbeing concerns, self-care techniques, and where and how to seek support.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase funding for charities that support people with mental health issues, if that's something you'd like to happen.
