Fund a walk-in mental health hub in every GP surgery and hospital

Closed 368 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should fund a mental health hub in every GP surgery and hospital, where no appointment is needed. For a person who is feeling suicidal, an appointment could be too late in saving them.
Too many people die due to mental health issues and suicide. Currently the only options for help are to wait for a GP appointment or specialist referral or to call a helpline or go to A&E. All of these things require time, which for someone struggling could be too late in helping them. Having mental health hubs where no appointment is required to speak to someone, I genuinely believe could help so many people struggling.
