Labour — Aberafan Maesteg

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 October 2024

Debate

Access to NHS Mental Health Services

Contribution

I pay tribute to my hon. Friend, who is doing excellent work for the people of North Durham. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank our mental health nurses, who do such vital and valuable work. The Government are committed to shifting from hospital to community, and that of course includes the mental health sector. I can assure my hon. Friend that we are working with NHS England on how best to deploy those additional 8,500 mental health workers.
