SOUTHEND is rallying behind a brave teenager who was told there are no mental health beds available to him in the whole of the UK. A fundraising push is hoping to raise thousands of pounds to help Leo Clark, from Leigh, who has fallen victim to a shortage of children and adolescent mental health beds. The 16-year-old has been described as “the politest and kindest young man” despite living with complex medical needs including a genetic condition and hearing loss. During primary school, Leo was suspected as having bipolar although he was not diagnosed until 2017. Following the diagnosis, he was sectioned and hospitalised for four months.
