The heartbroken mum of straight A student who tragically took his own life has begged for the NHS to improve its mental health services.
Beck Bromley passed away at the Royal Stoke University Hospital on November 24 last year, four days after he was found unresponsive at his family home on Westwood Road, Leek. A CT scan revealed a hypoxic brain injury, with an inquest later ruling his death as suicide.
During the hearing, North Staffordshire assistant coroner Daniel Howe listened to an emotional plea from Beck's mum Frances Bromley, Stoke-on-Trent Live reports. She called on the NHS and policy makers to reconsider how they deal with those suffering from mental illness 'whose thinking is so impaired that they cannot help themselves'.
