SAPN and the MHPN worked together on creating a new suicide prevention programme led by the VCFSE sector. Our networks provided us with access to specialist VCFSE providers, trusted cross-sector relationships, community insights, and lived experience perspectives that statutory partners often find hard to reach.
We collaborated with individuals and organisations to create a pilot programme where organisations could nominate a staff member to attend free Suicide Prevention training and join an ongoing support network.
Recommendations from what we learned can be found at the end of this report, which can be downloaded at the link above.
