Sajid Javid: What can be done to help prevent suicide?

Former Health Secretary Sajid Javid lost his brother Tariq to suicide in 2018. It is the number one cause of death for young people and biggest killer of men under 50.

In a personal report for the BBC Radio 4 Today programme, Sajid speaks to people in Bristol, where he grew up, whose lives have been affected by suicide and also speaks to the chief exec of the Samaritans and other mental health campaigners.

He then tells Today's Martha Kearney what he thinks the government should be doing to help with suicide prevention.
