?DO not forsake us? was the urgent plea from mental health patients to NHS chiefs after it emerged Swindon has experienced a jump of 60 per cent in suicides since 2005.

Ann Mooney, the chairman of mental health support charity SUNS, put patients? questions and concerns to bosses, warning them that only a deep change in attitudes and treatment would reverse the alarming rise in suicides at a meeting of Swindon Council?s health overview and scrutiny committee on Wednesday.
