    That's a little harsh don't you think? @MW123 is such a lovely person and always gives extremely good advice. It's not nice to judge people in this way, especially when you don't know them.

    The next time you feel angry, have you thought about typing how you feel in a post and then delete it? Don't press the post button. It's like writing angry letters to people on pen and paper, but you don't actually send it off, just roll the piece of paper in a ball and put it in the bin.

    Might help you get your feelings out.

    Catherine, thank you! I was just looking out for you, especially after your worries about overstepping the mark with your email to Stephen Timms MP last summer. And it’s sweet that you think I’m a gentleman, but I’m actually female! So, I guess you could say I’m a lady fighting for change—complete with my own “identity crisis” as a bonus! xx

    Hopefully this helps ease some anxiety.

    Question

    Sorcha Eastwood

    To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, which organisations she consulted on the proposal of having job coaches visit mental health patients in hospital.

    Answer

    Alison Mcgovern

    Answered on

    28 October 2024

    The Secretary of State has made no announcement regarding having job coaches visit mental health patients in hospital and therefore did not consult any organisations. She was referring to her experience visiting a severe mental illness Individual Placement and Support programme.

    The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) employment model is internationally recognised as one of the most effective way to support people with mental health problems to gain and keep paid employment. Individual Placement and Support services offer intensive, individually tailored support to help people to choose and find the right job, with ongoing support for the employer and employee to help ensure the person sustain their employment.

    In August, 38,704 people had accessed Individual Placement and Support services in the previous 12 months, meaning we are above our trajectory to meet the end of year target of 40,500 people accessing these services.

    The good ones have probably realised how cruel it is and leave. It's the ones that have a God complex and are bonus driven who will stay.
