Is there a mental health crisis at our universities?

Dr Chetna Kang and Louisa Peacock focus on mental health at university.

The head of the University of Buckingham, Anthony Seldon, believes there's a mental health crisis in our universities.

He wants them to take more responsibility for the mental well being of their students and says his university will lead the way in improving support for students.

This week we'll hear from him and speak to a Hertfordshire mother whose son took his own life at Oxford University. She believes it could have been prevented.
