On 4th July 2024 a Labour Government was elected with an overall majority to serve a full term.
In the Kings Speech we heard for the first time about a new Children’s Wellbeing Bill.
We ask you to support the Child Mental Health Charter – these are the 6 principles – find out their full details on the home page by clicking here , by signing the Charter but also to write/ email your MP, as this is the way to get questions raised at Parliament. Click here to download the email template to send off – it takes 5 minutes but can have such an impact on our cause.
It’s six principles must underpin a new Mental Health Act that:
- Focuses on children’s needs
- Protects children
- Invests in a properly qualified workforce
- Invests in policies informed by the best available evidence
- Focuses on the needs of parents/carers
- Makes policies work
Any questions or ideas to support, please email chair@childmentalhealthcharter.com thank you
