We know mental health is often treated as the poor relation of physical health. The purpose of the MHIS was to begin redressing this inequity. Scrapping this standard risks deepening inequities even further and taking desperately needed funding from mental health. @GOVUK
Mind@MindCharity

The Mental Health Investment Standard is a policy the previous UK government put in place to make sure mental health services get a certain share of NHS funding when it’s allocated at a local level. It’s the only part of mental health funding that’s actually ring-fenced.

Right now, many people with mental health problems who want to work aren’t getting the support they need. They're often pushed into low-quality, low-paid work before they're ready. This can worsen their mental health, so these announcements are a positive step. But we think the reforms need to go further… 2/8

For many NHS staff, the recent racist violence in this country will leave them feeling afraid and unwelcome. To those colleagues, our message is simple: you are welcome and you are valuable members of our community. Reach out for support if you need it. england.nhs.uk/supporting-our…

For the first time ever in the last 27 years of being in this country, I’m wondering if it’s safe for me to go out and see community patients tomorrow. I won’t cancel on my patients, who are all expecting to see me, but will be anxious that I am obviously brown skinned.
Derek Tracy@Derektracy1

It is devastating to see what is happening in the UK right now. So many people will be scared for their safety from racist thugs. It is not enough to say it's a minority or that they don't represent the rest. We need to be actively antiracist together.

Earlier this month the women of Kuluhenna Drama shared their summer showcase ‘Strong Women” with an audience of family & friends. The performance featured scenes about the absurd & joyful experience of being a woman, ending in a powerful rallying cry to “protect all women” 💪 🎭

“I used to come to the sessions before and notice the women were shy, but now I see the same women opening up and participating a lot. It makes me happy to see the confidence! I like to do more with Mafwa.” - Maffo, volunteer for Kuluhenna Drama
