Recommendation 3
3
Paragraph: 45
Urgent, preventative action is warranted for rural mental health, despite no immediate crisis.
Conclusion
We believe that, while the available evidence does not reveal a mental health crisis in rural England, there are more than enough glaring gaps, and obvious red flags, to warrant urgent and meaningful action, aiming to achieve a degree of preventative impact rather having to wait for an inevitable crisis to create a political imperative and free the necessary resource.
