Free therapist/counsellors in schools in the UK for every day of the week

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like secondary schools and colleges to have free therapists/counsellors that are available every day of the school week so its more accessible to students.
I would also like it so that therapy is free or cheaper so that adults themselves can have more accessibility to get the help they need

This would help decrease suicide and self harm rates in children younger than the age of 18.
It can also decrease these rates in adults too.
Depression may be seen less, as well as PTSD.
