Liridon Saliuka, 29, took his own life whilst awaiting trail for joint enterprise charges at Belmarsh prison in London.

Last year, an inquest into his death found that ill treatment and dismissiveness of his disability by prison staff contributed to his death.

Lucy and Lee speak to Liridon’s sister Dita Saliuka, about what he meant to her, disability discrimination, and why prisons aren’t safe for anyone.

Dita and Lee draw parallels between their experiences of caring for their loved ones, grieving their deaths and finding the strength to continue the fight.
