Closed petition Secure mental health beds needed for paediatric patients during a crisis patients

Closed on

Secure mental health accommodation is needed for children with autism, adhd or any mental health issue during a mental health crisis, where it is too dangerous for the child's family to care for them. Our children are @ risk in police cells & inexperienced foster care & so need somewhere like a mental health unit where they're safe & cared for by experienced staff until they can return to their families. We need this before something serious happens to one of our children!
