MPs will debate today whether suicide prevention should be a mandatory part of the school curriculum following a campaign by three bereaved dads.

The 3 Dads Walking have been calling on the Government to change the curriculum following the deaths of their daughters to suicide.

After gaining almost 160,000 signatures on their online petition, MPs will debate the issue on Monday afternoon.

Mike Palmer from Sale in Greater Manchester, lost his 17-year-old daughter Beth at the beginning of lockdown and, united by grief, joined forces with Andy Airey and Tim Owen to make a change.
