BANKSIA PETITION GAINING TRACTION
A petition to see Tamworth’s Banksia Mental Health Unit upgraded has now seen the support of more than 6,000 people.
Members of the Mental Health Carers’ Support Group are continuing to push the petition across the region, following concerns over the unit’s lack of resources and patient safety.
The group will be in town over the next few days, as they seek the 10,000 signatures necessary to take the petition to state parliament.
