Our work in suicide prevention
We deliver various training courses to support industries, education settings, businesses, local government authorities and departments and individuals to develop their knowledge and understanding of mental health and wellbeing. This includes developing strategies and approaches which promote a positive mental health culture and mindset. Training includes positive approaches to open communication about mental health and encouragement of conversation and signposting and support.
We also deliver Youth and Adult Mental Health First Aid training to support individuals and staff in identifying and supporting individuals at risk of suicide.
Our current priorities
To promote a positive culture of mental health awareness which challenges the stigma around mental health.
To raise awareness and understanding of mental health in the public and private sectors and support others facing challenges with suicide and mental health.
Our current challenges
Companies are facing increasing financial pressure and are having to prioritise areas for development. One of our biggest challenges at the moment is that budget restraints are restricting access to training opportunities.
Contacting companies and communicating with the right people about resources and support available is also a challenge at the moment.
