David Cameron will call for a "more mature" conversation about mental health as he sets out how services in England will benefit from extra cash.

Specialist care for new mothers with mental health problems and support for anorexic teenagers will gain money allocated in the Autumn Statement.

The PM will also pledge more support in hospital A&E departments.

He will also announce new parenting support and plans to demolish some of England's worst council estates.

He is expected to say mental illness is not contagious and is "nothing to be frightened of".
