Our campaigners were invited by Mark Jenkinson MP to visit Parliament last week. The team met the minister of care and mental health, Gillian Keegan MP-sharing case studies of local children that have been seriously let down by Cumbria’s mental health services.

If someone opens up to you about their mental health, don't feel like you have to have all the answers. Simply listening can be enough.
