Petition Introduce mental health ambulances as an additional emergency service

Introduce designated mental health ambulances to help people in crisis. I think this would be better than relying on police or the regular ambulance service.

More details

I have been in crisis myself and had the police attend. I think they can lack training in mental health crises. This can make the whole experience a lot harder, more traumatic, more stressful, unhelpful and unnecessary arrests can take place.
