Labour have set out plans to support the mental health of 3 million NHS and care staff in England


It includes a 24/7 national hotline they can call, with follow up support and fast-tracked help.

It’s spearheaded by Tooting MP and Shadow Mental Health Secretary Dr Rosena-Allin Khan.

She says many NHS and social care staff have been scared of going to work, and they’ve faced “death and despair every day for over three months”.

The proposals have been backed by the GMB union.
