A mental health blogger who took her own life by swallowing a poisonous substance was failed by the psychiatric hospital caring for her, a jury has found.

Beth Matthews, 26, died a short time after taking the substance, which she had ordered online and told staff was protein powder in March last year.

She was being treated at the Priory Hospital Cheadle Royal in Stockport, UK.
