Ensure all young people have faster, easier access to mental health services

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like to ensure all mental health needs are dealt with as a first priority, we need to guarantee waiting times for therapy is shorter, access for help is expeditious, reliable and be satisfied that ALL care available is given to suit everyone.
Because less lives will be taken,the longer people wait, the worse outcome occurs for them suffering. Mental health IS a priority and we can’t let that slip. I feel that young people do not receive all the care,we need to ensure all the best treatment, organisations can provide. Young people are taking their lives due to lack of support , this needs to stop!!
