Rejected petition More mental health services for vulnerable adults.

Put more funding into mental health services so individuals are supported effectively and don't reach crisis point.

More details

I have recently helped a vulnerable adult who had mental health issues and was in a very vulnerable state. There could have easily been a different outcome for this individual if it weren't for the help of the public to keep him safe until police and ambulance service arrived.
