Andy Burnham supports compulsory suicide prevention training

Andy Burnham has expressed support for mandatory suicide prevention training for social workers following the death of Matilda Davis, a parent-carer who took her own life after feeling exhausted and unsupported by the social care system. Davis, a former art teacher caring for her disabled son, died shortly after a meeting with social workers who had not received such training. Her family, and the local MP, have called for measures to prevent similar tragedies, highlighting that nearly half of parent-carers have contemplated suicide. Burnham agreed to facilitate discussions on implementing mandatory training across local authorities.
