ITV NEWS: Many young people who commit suicide may themselves have been bereaved

Description

Young people who commit suicide have often suffered a bereavement themselves according to a new report.

The investigation by Manchester University shows that 25 percent of under 20's who took their own life had previously lost someone.

And for more than 1 in 10 that was also due to suicide.

The report is by The University of Manchester's National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by People with Mental Illness (NCISH).
