Give more funding to Mental Health Services

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Give local Mental Health Services more funding so they can improve the service they currently provide as it is completely ineffective.
Mental Health Teams are overwhelmed by their caseloads and have very poor efficiency. Give them more funding to hire more staff, see more patients and ultimately save more lives. So many suicides are preventable and with more efficient mental health services more would be prevented.
