A bereaved mum campaigning for change

[Paulamc007]

Hi, I’m hoping you can help me. My son Oliver died as a result of NHS staff not having autism and learning disability training. I’m campaigning to make autism training compulsory for NHS staff so that there isn’t any further needless deaths. Could I please put a post on your group promoting my petition? I believe it is relevant to the members of your group and I’d really appreciate your support in helping to get to 100,000 signatures so that the Government will debate it. We currently have almost 30,000 signatures Many thanks in advance. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/221033 — with Oliver McGowan.

Thankyou for doing this. I have been invited to The Houses of Parliament to meet Caroline Dinenage the Health and Social Care minister in September. I am interested in looking at the content of that training and how it will be delivered

I'm so sorry to read about what happened to Oliver . I see the government has responded and said they want everyone to have the necessary training/knowledge. I hope this is implemented to prevent things like this from happening again.
