Fund mental health support for people who administered first aid

What the petition asks
I would like the Government to provide funding for mental health support for all people who have administered first aid at a medical incident. This could be as simple as a call with someone who can give Mental Health support.
The reason I have put this petition together is that once the casualty has been taken by the Paramedics, the person who has administered first aid has no idea about what has happened to the casualty. This can start playing on the mind of the person who dealt with casualty, which can affect their mental health, and their personal life. We want the Government to fund mental health support for all people who administer first aid, to ensure they receive any support and advice they need.
