When Maxine Carrick’s son Oskar left home for his dream degree in film at Sheffield Hallam University, she thought her son would be in safe hands.
The 20-year-old was living with a brain injury from a car accident 18 months earlier, and was listed as a disabled student when he embarked on the course in September 2020.
But tragedy struck several months later in June when the mum-of-five received the worst call imaginable to any parent – Oskar had taken his own life.
