Closed petition Fund extra support for teenagers with poor mental health or who are neurodiverse
Closed on
We want the Government to fund more support for young people with mental health problems, such as PTSD and bipolar disorder, as well as those who are neurodiverse, including autistic people and those with ADHD.
This should include access to face to face conversations so that young people can talk to someone, and if they are in a bad place ring up for a face to face no matter the time of day.
Those aged from 13 to 19 often suffer from mental health problems, and need that support.
Young people should be able to go somewhere where we can meet a person who can help. This could help prevent teenagers going missing or even considering suicide.
