Alcohol and suicide: Insights from LGBTQ+ communities’ experiences

The Suicide Prevention Consortium has been exploring the link between alcohol and suicide for LGBTQ+ people in England, based on their own experiences.

We learned that experiences with alcohol, suicide, and self-harm are deeply personal, and LGBTQ+ identities are just one part of these experiences.

We believe healthcare should take a more person-centred approach, offering inclusive and connected care to reduce alcohol-related harm and suicide risk.
