Mick is joined by Jenetta Barry on this week's episode.

18 years ago, Jenetta lost her daughter Jenny to suicide. She was aged just 16.

Jenetta explores her journey in the days, weeks months and years before and after it happened, and how she tries to use her experience to help and support others.

This August, a team of people are embarking on a Kilimanjaro challenge to raise funds to help support activities around World Jenny's Day  - an annual celebration of the arts and life, held on World Mental Health Day, October 10th.
