Labour wants mental health teams within GP practices, free appointments for mental health issues

Quote:
GP practices will have dedicated mental health teams and all appointments relating to mental health issues will be free under a pilot programme being proposed by the Labour Party.
On first look this seems like a good start towards removing stigma and barriers to access in mental health. Having someone at your local GP will be much more easier than say having to find an appropriate service or going into a mental health inpatient unit to be assessed.
