On 17 April 2024 I commenced an investigation into the death of Georgia Charlotte SCARFF aged 16. The investigation concluded at the end of the inquest on 10 October 2025. The conclusion of the inquest was: Narrative Conclusion - Georgia Charlotte SCARFF was described by her family and friends as a caring, compassionate, thoughtful, kind and generous person who exuded warmth and a self-assured charisma. A private person whose company was uplifting, who deeply loved and cherished her family and who had a genuine desire to see the lives of those around her enhanced. At school, Georgia had been an accomplished and talented athlete who was known for her conscientiousness and commitment to her studies. During her GCSE year Georgia started to develop anxiety in relation to her academic performance, future options and how she would manage these. She confided her concerns to her mother who sought assistance from Georgia’s school in January 2024. Georgia had not confided to anyone at her school about her concerns and had appeared to behave normally to both fellow students and staff throughout this time. Notwithstanding this, the school arranged for Georgia to receive counselling and at the time of her death she had undertaken three sessions with a Counsellor. Sunday, the 14th April 2024 was the last day of the Easter break and Georgia retired to bed that evening with the expectation being that she would return to school the following morning. She appeared to be normal and her family recalled her having had an enjoyable break and that evening seemed to be her usual self. At some point between 10.00 pm during the evening of the 14th and 01.20 am in the early morning of the 15th April 2024, Georgia left her home and proceeded to walk around Bury Saint Edmunds. She sent several messages to her mother and sister expressing thoughts of a concerning nature. At around 01.30 am on the 15th April 2024 Georgia stepped into the path of a lorry driving westbound on the A14 in the vicinity of Bury Saint Edmunds. The impact with the lorry caused injuries which led to Georgia’s immediate death. A subsequent Police investigation established that no defect with the lorry or conduct on the part of the driver were causative of Georgia’s death. At the time of her death, Georgia was experiencing anxiety associated with her ruminating about what she perceived to be concerns relating to her studies and future life choices. This led to Georgia acting impulsively in taking her own life by stepping into the path of a lorry and which caused her death. The medical cause of death was confirmed as: 1a Severe Head Injury 1b Road Traffic Collision
