I saw this on the NAS homepage. I thought I would share it here in case anyone is interested in signing. Wrongful detention of autistic children and adults occurs far too often. It has happened to me twice, and once for my sister.
Despite so many of us signing this and NAS hand delivering the petition to Downing Street the government has ignored it 
Extract from the NAS email last week:
"Yesterday (7 November), the Government dropped its promised Mental Health Bill. We really hoped that Tuesday’s King’s Speech would be used as an opportunity to finally bring the crucial measures in the Bill before Parliament. But despite a massive 18,234 of you signing our open letter to Rishi Sunak demanding the outdated Mental Health Act is urgently reformed, we’ve been let down, again."
