This is the last picture of a 26-year-old before he ended his life - this is the picture his family want you to see

People often associate pictures relating to suicide of people with their head in the hands or just looking sad. But the image of Steffan Rees smiling with his baby niece doesn't show this at all.

His sister Sian described Steffan as the "life and soul of the party" and someone who "lit up the room". This is what made his suicide so shocking and why she is now so passionate about helping others, WalesOnline reports.

"I couldn't have asked for a better brother," says Sian. "He was only 26, had a loving family, a beautiful girlfriend, and didn't say anything about having any mental health issues."
