Fund increased support for people with agoraphobia

Closed 121 signatures

What the petition asks

There are a range of treatments for people suffering from agoraphobia, but accessing these can be difficult. There are also concerns that some housebound sufferers experience a lack of care, compassion & respect. Additional funding could help improve the support that people with agoraphobia receive.
We want the Government to provide additional funding to improve the support that people suffering from agoraphobia receive. This should be used to increase access to treatment, and provide additional training for medical and care professionals about agoraphobia and the needs of sufferers.
