Stop the closure of the Mental Health Welland Centre in Market Harborough.

Closed 774 signatures

What the petition asks

This centre is my sole source of free support where I, like so many others, have crucial appointments with a psychiatrist. The closure of this centre means appointments would be held in Wigton. But for people who cannot drive and have anxiety when using public transport this will made be difficult.
The wider issue here is the governments neglect of the mental health services in the United Kingdom. I realise there are probably many cases in towns, villages or cities where these centres are being closed down and I would encourage those effected by these changed to petition against them too.
