My thoughts are with everyone affected, especially those still in hospital, and I pay tribute to the armed officers and emergency services for their swift and professional response in such uncertain circumstances.

With cross-party support and early indications of positivity from fellow MPs, the creation of this APPG is a huge step in the right direction. It gives us a real chance to drive meaningful change — improving support for families and, ultimately, saving the lives of parent carers.

The lack of emotional and statutory support for parents like Hayley is something most of us never think about—until it happens to us.

55% of parent carers felt their lives were not worth living, 47% had thought about taking their own life, and 1 in 10 had attempted it.
