By Peter Walker & Piers MeylerBBC News and Local Democracy Reporting Service
A council is hiring a new Mental Health officer to help address above-average suicide rates.
Essex County Council is offering £37,500 for a public Mental Health and suicide prevention officer.
The successful applicant would work in the north east of The County , where in Tendring and Colchester, The Suicide rate was significantly above the England average.
Coroners have previously criticised Mental Health services in The County .
The Job advertisement read: " Suicide rates in some parts of Essex have historically been higher than The National average, so this role presents a real opportunity for The Right candidate to make a difference. "
According to, 13. 8 people for every 100,000 in Tendring took their life each year between 2019-2021, and 15 per 100,000 in Colchester.
The average figure for England was 10. 6 during that period.
The said The Candidate would work with the North East Essex Suicide Prevention Programme, working with The Police , hospitals and GPs - including leading on activities and projects - to help improve collaboration.
Earlier this year, Essex County Council was in West Mersea near Colchester in 2020.
The Council did not act on " appropriate referrals" by the NHS, conduct " required assessments" while she was a Mental Health inpatient and did not appoint a Social Worker until she was discharged, Ms Hayes said.
Essex, in response, said it implemented additional training and changed some of its assessment policies.
