In an exclsuive article in Community Care, Paul Burstow has outlined the link between poor mental health and poverty.

"Poor mental health is often a key link in that 'miserable chain of inevitability' linking family breakdown, worklessness, drug and alcohol abuse and crime with long-term poverty and exclusion."

"In the months ahead, ministers from the Department of Health and across government will reshape mental health strategy to set clear outcomes and offer a roadmap for delivering them."

The Future Vision Coalition has responded to this news.
