What the petition asks
Thousands of young people suffering from mental health issues get taken out of Children and Adoloscent Mental Health Services and put into Adult Services and Adult Wards getting treated with people twice their age. This is wrong and not good for recovery or economically viable.
We need Children's and Adoloscent Mental Health Services that last till 25.
At 18 you may be still in full time education, dealing with the stresses of University or living away from home for the first time.
Still a child.
