Alex, 19

This was Alex, at a music festival in August with his friends. He was young and free and enjoying life, music festivals, the gym, and generally just being with friends having fun and living a full life.

He was happy and smiling with loads of love and kindness to give. His death came out of nowhere. There was no indication he was having those thoughts, but one night he suddenly had a desire to end it all and made a drastic decision.

Tracey, Alex’s mum
