Talking about Suicide Saves Lives
1 in 5 of us will think about suicide at some point in our lives but many of us struggle to talk about it. At Here For You, we want to help change the narrative around talking about suicide. We work with the public and other professionals to encourage and support conversations about suicide and suicide prevention.
In partnership with other Touchstone services and partner organisations, we have created a Short Support Guide to Talking about Suicide for the Public and Other Professionals. You can download our resource to read and share below.
