Rejected petition Raise awareness and stop the stigma within mental health

More details

I want to raise awareness for mental health and stop the stigma.
Have better employment rights, better benefits and
bring awareness in to schools so teachers and parents can recognise the signs before it is too late.

Better health care and support to be more accessible.

I don't want mental health to be a hidden and forgotten illness.People are frightened because it can not be seen therefore do not under stand it.

I would like the government to give the recognition that mental health deserves.
