Life Matters is a ground-breaking new podcast where people with real experiences talk candidly about how suicide has affected them, where we get the very latest on innovative suicide prevention initiatives being developed around the world, investigate special projects - and hear from people who are creating some fun ways to help people to open up.
In this fourth programme, hosted by producer Ashley Byrne, we meet writer Helen Garlick, the soon to be regular presenter of Life Matters. Ashley chats to Helen about her book No Place to Lie in which she writes about coming to terms with her brother's suicide decades after he took his own life. For Helen's family the word 'suicide' was taboo and it was only after her parents' had passed away that she could begin to process things properly. Along the way she discovered one member of her family had been harbouring another secret.
