Shock figures reveal Corby is the suicide capital of England

Shock figures reveal Corby is the suicide capital of England Death records have revealed the suicide capital of England.

Some of the nation's favourite seaside resorts feature at the top of the list - while Corby had the highest rate in the entire country.

Government statistics, crunched by MailOnline, reveal 17.5 people in every 10,000 commit suicide in the Northamptonshire town.

Corby was hit by the decline of its steel industry in the 1980s which saw thousands of people in the town being made redundant.

Figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) show that in the last three years there were a total of 14,277 deaths classified as suicides.

But they also show a huge variation across the country - with some parts of England having three times the suicide rate of others. The Daily Mail
