Mental Health

Far more investment needed. 

Mental health services underpin so much. People who are struggling cry out for help.  They can't get help without sitting on a waiting list which exacerbates the problem. To speak about mental health is encouraged but the services are stretched. Sometimes people need more than a "listening ear", they need 1-2-1  support. If you are lonely or struggling with self esteem or even venturing out of your home, being told to attend community groups is too daunting.
