Grassroots Suicide Prevention
People: Improving people’s mental wellbeing
Our training teaches the skills needed to support those at risk of suicide. We would like to train local professionals and community members to provide practical support for their family and friends.
About this cause
We are a UK leader in suicide prevention. We help to create safe spaces in our communities for lifesaving conversations about suicide. We support people to develop the skills and confidence needed to save lives. We believe we can all make a difference. We believe that recovery from suicidal thoughts and suicidal behaviours is possible.
How this cause brings people in the community together
When life gets tough, connecting with others can make all the difference. But reaching out can feel impossible, particularly when thoughts of suicide are involved. That’s why we all need to bravely ask the questions that matter, and to ask for support when we need it. We can ask those struggling to cope if they are having thoughts of suicide and listen to what they say, showing that we care.
