Improve mental health services for neurodiverse young people

Closed 613 signatures

What the petition asks

We call on the Government to increase funding for NHS Child and Adolescents Mental Health Services to enable early diagnosis, intervention, treatment and support for children who are neurodiverse. We believe CAMHS requires more funding to improve staffing, treatment and care problems.
We believe NHS children and adolescent mental health services are failing our children with neurodiversity, and that early intervention, diagnosis, treatment and support are integral to enabling them to thrive. We believe that the Government is underfunding these services, putting the health and wellbeing of our young people at tremendous risk.
