Chris asks Chancellor to commit to properly funding SEND services

Jennifer Chalkley, my constituent who was autistic, died of avoidable suicide aged seventeen in October 2021. Her mum, Sharren Bridges has made it her life’s work to save others. 

Today I asked the Chancellor to commit to fund children’s mental health services and the Department for Education properly to end the SEND crisis in this country and that, if she did, I could go back to Jen’s mum and tell her that her daughter’s death had not been in vain.
