The Covid-19 crisis is having a severe impact on the mental health of many people. As it stands, it is very difficult for people to access mental health care, with incredibly long waiting lists and short courses of treatment with little follow up. In addition, as we go through this unprecedented crisis, some people are experiencing severe trauma, for which the standard therapies which are offered (for example Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) can be inappropriate treatment.

A constituent has contacted me regarding access to parks and green spaces for those shielding. They are concerned that those who need to shield could suffer from physical and mental health issues.
