Today's #Budget24 misses a crucial opportunity to turn around the nation's mental health. And while the NHS boost is welcome, mental health must get its fair share of this essential investment. Here's our response in full 👇centreformentalhealth.org.uk/news/item/autu… #AutumnBudget #MentalHealth

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

Why is the role of mental health social work so overlooked in public policy? Excellent podcast from @CentreforMH with @PenelopeEA our fantastic External Relations Director. Have a listen ... #mentalhealth #socialwork #socialcare #community

🎧Listen to our External Relations Director @PenelopeEA set the record straight on the crucial role of social workers in mental health🎙️ "It's one of those professions that just doesn’t have the public awareness that it needs and deserves". Thanks @CentreforMH - great #podcast

Series of conversations today with Wes Streeting hearing about his vision for Adult Social Care. Several fringe events considering how Government can reform public service, health, and social care. Fair pay and workforce clear priorities. Move to neighborhood health.

Great to see a commitment to prevention, the Mental Health Bill and reducing waiting times in the #KingsSpeech today. Investment in the mental health workforce – especially community-based and social care services – is key to enacting these changes.


So pleased to see #mentalhealth on par with physical health in #KingsSpeech. Now need growth & investment in integrated mental health workforce to connect people to help & support as early as possible & no matter where they are in “system” #health #housing #education #employment

Listening to @swoolnough CEO of @TheKingsFund talking about workforce at #nhsconfedexpo - its about pay, but also flexibility, work/life balance. Our @ThinkAheadMH data says exactly that. Mental health social workers want supportive & modern workplaces that treat them as people

“Let’s understand how people actually live, and give people actual support”. Well said @Voa1234

“The language that we use… even in the question ‘Do we have a sick note culture?’ It’s cruel” Chair of the NHS Confederation Victor Adebowale says the use of “performative” language needs to stop, and the government should show more "compassion" #bbcqt bbc.in/4b8DVY2

Every death is a preventable tragedy and the failure of public health policy on this front is increasingly clear. We need a coordinated government response to alcohol harm and investment within prevention and early intervention is key. twitter.com/TurningPointUK…

Yesterday, @ONS released the latest figures on alcohol-specific death which were sadly up 4.2% on the previous year. You can read the full statement from our Chief Operating Officer, Clare Taylor here: turning-point.co.uk/news-and-insig…
