Led by workers with personal experience of suicide bereavement our aim is both to pro-actively support people affected by a suicide and raise awareness of the impact of suicide on those left behind.
We aim to encourage people bereaved by suicide to access support by being accessible, flexible and basing the support offered on an individuals or family’s needs.
