The UK British Criminal Justice System criminlising the mentally ill is wrong.

It is clear that this woman was struggling with her mental health. She did not follow through with her plan. She was honest to all agencies involved in her case.

This woman needs support and help not criminilisation for feeling suicidal during a Global Pandemic, We are calling on the government to look into this case and advocate for the release of this woman,  and to offer the mental health support she badly needs. 

The criminilisation of people with mental health issues must stop now!
