The family of a mental health blogger credited with saving the life of at least one of her 'massive' online following say her own death was 'wholly avoidable' and 'completely unnecessary' after an inquest ruled she was neglected.
Devastated relatives of Beth Matthews say she 'gave a bright light of hope to people who were struggling to see any light at all' by documenting her experience and helping others on social media following a previous suicide attempt in 2019.
However, they say she was 'tragically let down' and are now calling for mental health providers to 'listen and act' on the findings of the jury, who identified a number of 'failings' in her care.
