Conor McGinn MP Member of Parliament for St Helens North
I challenged Government Ministers over funding cuts to the North West Boroughs Partnership NHS Trust year on year since 2011.
The Trust is charged with delivering community and inpatient mental health services across St Helens, Halton, Knowsley, Warrington and Wigan, and it supports a number of mental health charities across Merseyside and Greater Manchester.
The Trust has хЃ9.5 million less now than six years ago лв a cut of nearly 6 per cent.\n

Despite Government promises to increase spending on mental health, their record shows that services across the North West are having their budgets cut just as more pressure is being piled on to the NHS.
This means that mental health services are under resourced and oversubscribed – which is not sustainable for those charged with providing or needing to use services.
