Make the government put more funds into mental health care across the NHS

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

The Conservative Government has removed £150 million from the mental health care departments of the NHS. The Government should have to continue to fund this area and improve care in this area, as 28% of disease in the NHS is caused by mental health conditions, but is only paid with 13% of funds.
