The tragic news of the death of Eversheds Sutherland partner Geraint Thomas this Christmas serves as a painful reminder that mental health and sexual harassment issues are deeply intertwined.

The story is sad in so many ways. That Thomas, a retail finance partner at the firm, leaves behind a wife and children, and that he died a week before Christmas, makes it heartbreaking at the outset. But the story also has added significance due to its connection to the highly charged topic of sexual harassment and the #MeToo movement.
