There were “failings” in the care of former England cricketer Graham Thorpe in the months before he died, a coroner has said.
It comes as Coroner Jonathan Stevens recorded a conclusion of suicide at an inquest into his death in August last year.
Thorpe died at a railway station in Surrey.
Mr Stevens read a statement yesterday during the inquest from Mr Thorpe’s GP Joan Munnelly, detailing the cricketer was diagnosed with anxiety and depression in 2018.
