This is a press release that was sent to the newspapers and radio

Professor Appleby published a report today about the future of mental health services.

Su Sayer from United Response said:

"We need to work together to create services that are not just about medicine.

We need to give people better information and support so they can live full lives in the community. "

We know many people with mental health needs want to work, but do not have the confidence.

Many people do not think they will get support to go back to work if they have been ill.

We need to help employers so they can support people.

Going back to work can really help someone’s quality of life and confidence. And it earns them money.

It can also help them to make new friends.
