Super proud mum of three wonderful children. Two on Earth and one who forever lives on in my heart, mind and soul. 💕🌈 Primary teacher for 30 years. Resigned.
For 30 years, I devoted my time/energy to the children I taught, thinking the same care would be given to mine. It wasn’t. My eldest hit crisis point at university, undetected. He ended his life.@TheLearnNetwork Change must happen. Please sign/ share. https://t.co/ds5YqugYWl
'We've exposed what was going on.'
'It's not over yet - they could still appeal to the next High Court up.'
The father of Natasha Abrahart, a student who took her own life, holds up a letter from her university inviting him to a meeting.
@NickFerrariLBC
A 5+ year battle that finally reached a positive outcome in the High Court. Congrats to the incredible Abrahart family for this outcome and for their resilience in this fight.
Shame on you, @BristolUni. Shamelessly and relentlessly dragging this family through the court system denying your responsibility after killing their daughter. Beyond disgusting.
@evelynwelch2013 — who is going to be held accountable?
“Natasha was struggling. She told them she was suicidal. They just carried on. They should have stopped.”
Bob and Maggie Abrahart, whose daughter Natasha suffered debilitating anxiety at university and took her own life, say they will keep fighting for a statutory duty of care.
A #StatutoryDutyofCare exists in employment & in #FE for all ages. Why not #HE? We believe that only legal underpinning will ensure all #HEPs have clear roles/responsibility for all student-facing staff; adopt adequately funded best practices & are accountable for their actions.
By talking about #suicide, we can help break down the stigma that can act as a barrier to getting help.

Today, the APPG on Suicide and Self-harm Prevention, which I proudly Chair, is launching an inquiry into young people and suicide. We would like to hear from young people with lived experience, as well as those impacted, via an anonymous survey. More info: https://t.co/lIPDLaGQFN

“I have heard it said that the greatest loss of a human being can experience is the loss of a child. This is true. It doesn’t just change you, it demolishes you. The rest of your life is spent on another level.”
