Q6. Agnes lives in my Bicester and Woodstock constituency. In 2019, when she was nine, she was referred by her GP to child and adolescent mental health services. Agnes has had to wait more than five years for an assessment for the neurodiversity that has caused her crushing mental health problems. Last year, when Agnes’s dad, Jim, sought to accelerate her appointment, he was told that CAMHS could not see her or prioritise her appointment“unless Agnes is actively trying to kill herself.”Jim asked me to raise this case because he wants to ensure that no other child goes through the same experience as his daughter. Will the Prime Minister meet Agnes, Jim and me to hear their story?
