@keirstarmer and
@wesstreeting are set to make some big decisions about NHS priorities and how money is going to be spent. We’re worried they could remove the Mental Health Investment Standard (MHIS) which guarantees a certain amount of funding for mental health services at a local level in England.
This decision would be a devastating step backwards. People with mental health problems and those waiting to get help will lose out. We can't let this happen.
We’re doing as much as we can behind the scenes but we need your help too:

Mental health already doesn’t get its fair share of funding. This will make things even worse.
We can’t afford to lose funding for mental health services when there are already 2 million people on waiting lists for mental health support.
Please do what you can to help us show how catastrophic this decision would be.
