Closed Create a Task Force to support residents displaced by environmental events

Closed on

Due to climate change, flooding and coastal soil erosion within the UK are becoming more common, in some place resulting in displacement of residents. The UK Government, therefore, needs to create a task force to mitigate the mental health impact climate change has on these people.

The Task Force should be given responsibility for the following:

- Providing access to support for mental health issues faced by displaced people.
- Providing access to economic support.
- Developing and implementing community-based solutions such as support groups and job resettlement schemes.
