ALT The quote from Ashley John Baptiste, BBC Broadcaster and Journalist, reads "I'm Ashley John Baptiste. You may know my work as a broadcaster but you may not know that when I was younger I was in the care system. It's an experience that has really shaped my journalism. I've also been mentored by the John Schofield Trust."

👇 Even those who know the @JSchofieldTrust from our mentoring and promotion of diversity in #journalism may not know the story of the amazing contribution @susieschobags has made- and how from a tragedy she created an organisation which changes lives 👇#SusieSchofieldMBE
So happy to see such a well deserved honour for the inspiring Susie Schofield.

Spoke to 3 people that lost a loved one to suicide.
I learned the only way to tackle suicide is to talk openly about it.
Please share with your pals. X
TW: Suicide.
“I wish I was there to intercept that last thought.”
Relatives of people who took their own lives reflect on the last photo taken of their loved ones.
