SL Talks... Suicide Prevention

Georgie is joined by Clare Milford Haven, the former magazine editor who lost her 21 year old son James to suicide back in 2006. Clare tells Georgie what happened, the events that lead to James taking his own life, the measures she believes should have been taken and how it has affected her and her family. She explains why she founded James' Place, her charity, and how it helps vulnerable young men, and offers her valuable advice to those suffering from mental health difficulties, as well as their loved ones.
