We remain committed to the aims of the NHS Long Term Plan, investing at least £2.3 billion of extra funding a year in expanding and transforming mental health services in England, including in Liverpool, Walton constituency.
This extra funding will enable an extra two million people to be treated by mental health services within the National Health Service by March 2024.
