We warmly welcome the introduction of the #MentalHealthBill today - this is an essential step towards modernising mental health services. It must be accompanied by investment in services & buildings so that people get support when they need it in safe, therapeutic environments.

We recognise not everything can be done in one budget But mental health must be on equal footing with physical health Crisis centres are welcome but we need long-term community-based care with a properly funded workforce Mental health provision cannot wait #Budget24
