Please help the people who help the mentally ill.

Christmas is a particularly hard time for people with mental health issues as they are often even more isolated than normal.

Which is why it is even more criminal that cuts are happening in the way that they are because as Local Councils face budget cuts, the first people they stop funding is the Voluntary or Third sector who often provide vital irreplaceable services for vulnerable people especially at this time of year - so when you decide which Charities to support at Christmas please think of Charities such as Mind, Rethink, Help for Heroes or Mencap because they all provide vital services.
