This is something really important to me that I want to raise awareness of while it's still running.
MIND, the National Association for Mental Health in the UK, are campaigning to end the cuts to mental health services that are being imposed by the current government using this petition.
According to MIND, 30,000 people have lost their social care since 2005, and the current funding cuts have let to a £90m shortfall in mental health services. Next year, hospitals have been asked to save 20% from their mental healthcare budgets.
1 in 4 people, in any given year, will suffer with ill mental health and may need support from these services, which are already stretched.

These cuts will cost lives, will reduce the quality of life for so many people and will cost us more money in the future.
You do not need to be a resident of the UK to sign this petition, all signatures count.
