Widespread Inequality Is At The Root Of The UK's Mental Health Crisis Setting out her One Nation agenda and making a clear break from the past, Theresa May used her first speech as Prime Minister to highlight the need to tackle social injustice. This rhetoric is welcome; but we must also be clear it can never translate into reality if the alarming situation in mental health is not resolved.
The high levels of health inequalities in the UK, especially within mental health, make this all the more urgent. Those in poverty are more likely to suffer from poor mental health than others, and at points in their life when we know people are vulnerable - infancy, childhood, and during poor physical health - they are not receiving enough support to prevent lasting mental health problems.
