Suicidal Sussex woman thanks ‘kind’ police officers for saving her life

PCs Donna King and Daniel Churchyard, along with their coach, PC Leanne Tighe, visited the woman’s home in Mid Sussex in January after concerns were raised for her welfare.

The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, said: “I was suicidal that morning, so my friend was extremely concerned. The three officers that came round my house were so lovely. They chatted to me, listened to me and helped me.

“They didn’t think it was safe to leave me, so they made some calls and took me to an urgent care centre at a hospital.

“The male officer even got my lock fixed as I locked myself out.”
