RETHINK........Sign our petition today

Do you care about mental illness? Do you want the next government to care too? Sign our petition and we will deliver it to the government after the General Election.

We, the undersigned, believe that it is wrong that in 2010 people with mental illnesses like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia are STILL...

• Missing out on basic treatments like psychological therapy and basic information
• Facing discrimination in everyday life from colleagues, neighbours and friends
• Too often locked up in prison without any healthcare.

So we want:

• Everyone affected by mental illness to be able to access decent treatment, including psychological therapy and family support, regardless of where they live or how much they earn
• Public attitudes to mental illness to be changed through a government-funded campaign
• Prisoners with mental illnesses to be in NHS care.
