answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2018 answer text <p>We have made an additional £1.4 billion available over the course of 2015/16 - 2020/21 to transform services and ensure access to specialist mental health services for an additional 70,000 children and young people a year by 2020/21.</p><p> </p><p>We have also introduced two waiting time standards for children and young people. The first is for 95% of children (up to 19 years old) with eating disorders to receive treatment within a week for urgent cases (and four weeks for routine cases). The second is for 50% of patients (of all ages) experiencing a first episode of psychosis to receive treatment within two weeks of referral. We are currently exceeding or on track to meet these waiting time standards.</p><p> </p><p>The recent Green Paper, ‘Transforming Children and Young People’s Mental Health Provision’, published by the Department for Health and Social Care and the Department for Education, announced the creation of new Mental Health Support Teams. These teams will deliver mental health interventions for those with mild to moderate needs in or close to schools and colleges (and refer those with more severe needs on to specialist services). The Green Paper also announced the piloting of a four week waiting time to improve access to National Health Service mental health services, which we will roll out in a number of trailblazer areas alongside the support teams. The Green Paper is supported by an additional £300 million.</p><p> </p><p>We will also ensure that at least one teacher in every primary and secondary school will receive mental health awareness training to enable school staff to spot common signs of mental health issues, and to help children and young people receive appropriate support.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 15/05/2018 10:39:54 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2018 answer text <p>The National Suicide Prevention Strategy for England was updated in 2017 to strengthen delivery in a range of key areas for action including targeting high risk groups such as men. The updated strategy is supported by £25 million of investment over the next three years.</p><p> </p><p>Every area is implementing a multi-agency suicide prevention plan to ensure that all local services are working together to implement tailored approaches to reducing suicides in their communities. We acknowledge that men may not engage as easily with services and increasingly, evidence indicates that men feel more comfortable accessing support and services in non-clinical settings.</p><p> </p><p>This has led to a wide range of innovative responses to provide support to men in community environments they find accessible and relevant including, for example, the Men’s Sheds Movement, Andy’s Man Clubs and State of Mind Sport.</p><p> </p><p>We are encouraged that the number of male suicides in England has reduced for the second consecutive year and the overall suicide rate is at its lowest since 2010, but there is much more we must do to ensure that everyone at risk of suicide has the help and support they need.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 15/05/2018 10:37:00 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
