I have a heavy heart ,full of sadness ...today, I was informed that a lovely person who Dexter & I met earlier this year, took her own life last night. If anyone is feeling suicidal , I urge you to reach out for help, there is a way back. #SuicidePrevention #MentalHealth #Hope

I was lucky enough to be in the audience today at a well-being event organised by our L&D team @metpoliceuk and to listen to the words of a very wise man. He relayed his own story of his personal journey with depression and how it had affected his career and his home life.
