They say a society is measured by how it treats its most vulnerable, and yet today there are still thousands of vulnerable people living in Acute Treatment Units, incarcerated miles away from those who know and love them best for no crime - simply because they have autism and / or learning difficulties. To find out why this is happening, please watch Norman Lamb MP explain the 'perverse incentives' that keep our children 'stuck in the system' in the attached documentary. Please help send a clear message to the Post-Brexit government that more needs to be done to ensure that the state policy of 'Homes not Hospitals' actually happens five years on from the Winterbourne View scandal. Please sign this petition. PLEASE SIGN AND SHARE WIDELY. Thank you.
