'Article 2 ECHR Inquest into Jen’s death, before the Surrey Senior Coroner, Richard Travers, has found that multiple failures on the part of Surrey and Borders’ Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS),a failure by Surrey County Council to properly manage Jen’s Educational Health Care Plan (‘EHCP’) process and other multi-agency failures contributed to Jen’s death.

The Senior Coroner provided his findings and conclusions in a far-reaching 81-paged ruling. He said that he was satisfied that, had that specialist input been provided in a timely manner, Jen’s final crisis would probably have been avoided or managed, such as to avoid her death.'
