Today is World Suicide Prevention Day and this years theme is “Working Together to Prevent Suicide”.
Suicide is a community issue and is everyone’s business. No one should suffer alone and together we can fight suicide and reach out to others when they are in need.
If a friend or family member is going through a difficult time, offering a listening ear when they need to talk will make a big difference for them and for you.
Remember that there are many other supports and services available if you are struggling with your mental health.
Samaritans provide confidential, non-judgemental support 24 hours every day.
