30 Years on and it's been decided that doctors and nurses be made to undertake mental health training as part of their professional development.
Mental health should also be part of the curriculum in promoting health and well being in pupils to prevent any future problems.
These measures are taking place tomorrow and it's hoped that the services are brought up to the same level as physical health.
"Just 1.4 per cent of public health spending is given to mental health,despite one in four people having a mental crisis ".
Ask yourselves,if this is now----2015,what were services like back in the 80's ?
I find this absolutely appalling,being that there were 8,000 people in 2012/13 who were detained in police cells because of the lack of NHS alternatives. As facts remain,people who do suffer,die on average 15/20 years earlier than others.
