Improve mental health services for teenagers and young adults in education

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

Mental Health affects everyone, at every age. Yet at schools, at Universities, where is the help? People get handed a leaflet and told to contact if they can. By then it might be too late.
I don't know about you but I'm tired of the lack of help around for everyone. As a human right, we should be given the resources to help ourselves, our minds and our bodies through the stresses of everyday life. Please sign this petition to get the Government to finally listen to the people.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you would like improvements to mental health services, but are not sure what improvements you would like the Government or Parliament to make.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

Take greater action to improve young people's mental health in the UK
Provide funding for mental health facilities in schools.
