Long surgery today. Major themes: housing & mental health.

People are stressed, with good cause. But generous with their experience, and not always looking for help personally, so much as wanting to change the system for the next person or family.

Fix the social determinants of health and you fix health.

So good to hear an MP & Minister recognising the social determinants of mental health needs. Too often we hear about putting counsellors in schools (etc.) where reducing stressful lives (for parents, teachers & young people) would be more effective

On changing things for the future, I've got migraines under control but discovered along the way there is a global(!) shortage of neurologists.

The solution is getting the better medications more affordable, as the reason GPs don't prescribe them is cost. NHS purchasing could do better too.

Even more so when your department want to change PIP to Vouchers from money it’s far harder to use vouchers than money and our disabilities never disappear

Horrible landlords are rushing to get section 21 evictions in before the ban. Horrifically cynical and irresponsible.
