Open petition: Review access to mental health care for children & YP with learning disabilities

Created by Helen Aconley
Closes on

Conduct a review of current provision and make sure that children & young people with learning disabilities have equal access to mental health care. This group are at greater risk of mental health illness and need specialist support.

Without this they could be exposed to serious inequity, unmet need & progression of the illness.

The Equalities Act was written for a reason. We feel the needs of our most vulnerable citizens are being overlooked. You cannot overlook these health needs. Act now!
