Miscellaneous
Karen Docherty lost both of her sons to suicide in the space of two and a half years. Her eldest son Stephen took his own life at the age of 30, after years of struggling with drug addiction. Two years later her younger son Graham also died by suicide. Since Graham’s death, Karen has been working to highlight the need for better access to mental health services and stronger support for families affected by suicide. She does not want another mother to experience what she went through.
