Wow. I don’t think I will ever forget the stories from this series. This was so well put together and I am grateful to you all for shining a light on mental heath.
I love all the Real podcasts and the Dying to be saved is excellent. I hope all the families get the justice they deserve.
This was such a hard listen but just so well done - how you managed to stay impartial when the final episode is so close to home boggles my mind, but you had to be and I take my hat off to you for that. I had to listen to it in chunks as it was so harrowing at times, but that just shows the magnitude of the failings in Essex’s mental health system. I hope the power of the people and spreading the word about this podcast, and people subsequently learning about the problems in the system helps bri... more
This podcast series has been highly recommended on my library since I started listening to Podcasts recently.
I’ve just finished listening to it and it broke me listening to it especially Abbigail’s story. 😢
Naomi does an incredible job of telling this case with respect & real compassion 💕
And I hope these families get justice and the answers they deserve. 🤞🏼
I had to listen to this twice as I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I hadn’t heard about the case.
Thank you so much for reporting on this and giving it the attention that it needed. I feel very sad and angry. Having worked in a mental hospital with teenagers for a few years.
I am shocked that this has happened and has been allowed to happen. Those poor souls have be let down. The mental health sector really needs to be looked at along with other care facilities.
Thank you again Naomi. I’m... more
