Are people in Colchester (and nationwide!) getting the support and help to achieve better health. This is specifically aimed at those who have Mental Health Difficulties/illnesses and those who deem themselves to be homeless. Please sign this petition to demand change in the housing system that is currently too service based and not person-centred enough.

Reaching this point has been draining but your continued attention reminds me why I started this exhausting fight. I am tired of the status quo and I know you are too. We have the momentum now so we keep pressing for the system to finally see the people behind the labels.

Too much paperwork and not enough actual care. My friend has been waiting months and he is practically living on the street. Fix it.

I used to work in this sector and watched people fall through the cracks every single day. It makes me sick how little they do for people struggling.
