Well done Barry the first time caller with mental illness difficulties 👏🏼👏🏼 #WMHD2020 #WorldMentalHealthDay Thank you Natasha Devon 🌈💙 for being such a #MentalHealth / #MentalIllness Advocate. Normalising the issue so people feel more comfortable discussing MH & MI is life saving💚

Very Brave! Jonathan Ashworth who clearly cares about #MentalHealth - I'm sure he wouldn't have declined talking to the nation on LBC Natasha Devon 🌈💙's show tonight, unlike Rt Hon Nadine Dorries the OFFICIAL Minister for MH.

Hold on, is Rt Hon Nadine Dorries the ACTUAL minister for #mentalhealth!!!??? WOW Her attitude and lack of compassion is astonishing! Perhaps Nadine could benefit from some training from the charities who are experts in this area: MHFA England® Mind Rethink Mental Illness Mental Health Foundation




Education Committee @DrAlexGeorge YoungMinds Place2Be rcpsychCAP The problem is the services aren't there! Regardless of how much money has just been secured, it's still a fraction of what's been cut. Youth and children's services have been all but eliminated and demands on schools, & by extension children, add to poor mental health.

Education Committee @DrAlexGeorge YoungMinds Place2Be rcpsychCAP I firmly believe that we can begin to address this through schools but only if the system changes dramatically. For starters, progress8 has to go to allow schools to focus on wellbeing. Sure Start and youth clubs have to reopen, grass root services are essential.

Education Committee @DrAlexGeorge YoungMinds Place2Be rcpsychCAP We must ensure that more than 1% of the health budget is given over to CYP mental health services. You can go with the headline figures as much as you like but when it's represented as 1% it seems different. CCGs need to be made accountable for spending on CYP mental health.

Education Committee @DrAlexGeorge YoungMinds Place2Be rcpsychCAP Funding for training for schools mental health leads was suspended last Jan (before covid) and the role is not essential as outlined in the green paper - why not? It's imperative the govt address these issues because until they do - it's all hot air and it's children who pay.

Education Committee @DrAlexGeorge YoungMinds Place2Be rcpsychCAP I know you've received a lot of stick but that's because you're acting as the mouthpiece of the government. The headlines may sound good to anyone not involved in CYP mental health, but for those who are, children, families and professionals, we see straight through it.

@DrAlexGeorge Cara Lisette I didn’t see anything of the sort!! I didn’t see any trolling, simply people who have been through pain and let down from the government trying to fight for the changes needed. We want to work with you to make change but that’s clearly not reciprocated
