Increase funding to Children's Mental Health services in the UK.

Closed 237 signatures

What the petition asks

In 2015, the government pledged an extra £1.4 billion over five years to “transform” CAMHS (Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services). CCGs (Clinical Comission Groups) used this money for other priorities, or something completely different. Children's Mental Health Services need more funding.
