Three years ago 2,500 people signed an online petition calling for suicide prevention barriers to be installed to prevent the continuing devastation being caused to families by loved ones taking their own lives.

The Government “has been incompetent” in its handling of the cladding crisis in the wake of the Grenfell Tower disaster, a Conservative MP has said.
Stephen McPartland (Stevenage) used a Commons debate on cladding brought forward by Labour to call on the Government to protect leaseholders from having to stump up huge sums to fix building defects, including the removal of flammable cladding.
Mr McPartland and his Conservative colleague Royston Smith (Southampton Itchen) have tabled amendments to the Fire Safety Bill in a bid to stop remediation costs being passed on to leaseholders and tenants.
