Free Suicide Prevention Awareness Training

Mind in Brent, Wandsworth, and Westminster is offering a free Suicide Prevention Awareness session tailored to those working with children and young people in different settings across South West London (Merton, Sutton, Richmond, Kingston, Wandsworth, and Croydon).

The session is aimed to increase the confidence of professionals who work in various services providing support to children and young people, including local council services, different charities, youth centers, and anyone involved in the care of young people. The session is about breaking the stigma and taking away shame associated with suicide by encouraging conversation in those settings and challenging existing misconceptions about mental health and suicide. Our aim is to support individuals within the community to build meaningful networks, promote awareness around suicide and increase confidence to support those most at risk.
