A 26-year-old student nurse researched suicide methods online before taking her life, a coroner has found.

Bronwen Morgan died after she was found in a hotel room in Pentwyn, Cardiff, in August 2020.

South Wales Central coroner Graeme Hughes has warned that more people may die after using forums discussing suicide methods.

He has submitted a prevention of future deaths report to the UK and Welsh governments.

Pontypridd coroner's court heard in October that Ms Morgan had been diagnosed with an emotionally unstable personality disorder.

The Cardiff University nursing student was described as "bright and beautiful" by her family.

Mr Hughes said the evidence from the inquest revealed Ms Morgan had "registered and was engaging in discussion forums" about suicide methods.

His report said Ms Morgan was "discussing and seeking advice from fellow users".

The coroner said he was concerned that sites "facilitating, or promoting" suicide were available to people like Ms Morgan who were vulnerable, due to their diagnosed, or otherwise mental illness.

He said action should be taken to remove, limit or mitigate the availability of these websites.

It comes as leading UK broadband providers said they have blocked access to a website promoting suicide.

A ����ý investigation linked the forum to more than 50 UK deaths.
