World Suicide Prevention Day 2023

Sunday 10th September is World Suicide Prevention Day

There are a number of local services that support people who may be at risk of suicide or who have experienced a bereavement through suicide.  You can find information on these services in the Belfast Suicide Prevention Pocket Guide.  Hard copies of the guide are available to order from the CRIS Library at Knockbracken.

If you are interested in helping to prevent suicides, please download the Health Improvement Team’s Training Guide which includes information on how you can access suicide prevention courses and e-learning.

If you’re looking for information and resources regarding suicide prevention and mental health please see the Mind ur Mind section of the Belfast Trust’s staff B Well website.  You can also check out our range of Self Help guides here which include topics such as depression, self-harm and stress.

If you or someone you know are in immediate danger of suicide, seek help immediately.  Either call Lifeline on 0808 808 8000 or call 999.
