'It crushed me' Woman whose ex-boyfriend committed suicide launches men's mental health app

A woman who lost an ex-boyfriend to suicide has launched a men's mental health app - with £20k of her own money. Claire Anstey, now 44, was left devastated after Aaron Kinnaird, 30, took his own life in 2004.

She says it turned her world upside down and, as a way of grieving, she became an advocate for men's mental health. Now, Claire has designed the Wisdom Gym - an app designed to help men with their mental health.

She said: "The suicide rate has been sharply rising all over the world for the last decade. So I gave up my job and made it my mission to create an easy format for men to help them thrive, and keep their mental health in check."
