There is no health without mental health (Department of Health, 2011) just as there may be no academic achievement without mental health.

Please sign the petition in support of this extremely important issue.

It is hoped that our collective signatures will prompt the government to recognise and debate the importance of actively promoting the awareness of mental ill-health in higher education.
