People with learning disabilities are being "locked up" in hospitals instead of being supported in their communities, according to a campaign group.
Janis and Matthew Griffiths' son William was sectioned in 2019. They were eventually able to bring him home, but they are campaigning to try and stop this from happening to anyone else with similar needs. "This is an enduring trauma that doesn't just stop when he goes into appropriate care.

“We do not agree that people are being systematically detained inappropriately in mental health units.
