If someone is suicidal, listen to them and allow them to express their feelings. They may feel a huge sense of relief that someone is willing to hear their thoughts. Ask open and honest questions without judgement and show that you are listening. 💜 #SuicidePrevention #Support

Young people are struggling right now. The mental health crisis urgently needs focus and support. Let’s all work together to build a better world for the mental health of young people. #YoungPeople #MentalHealth #Wellbeing #YouthMentalHealth
The mental health crisis isn’t caused by one thing – it’s a million tiny things that add up to one huge problem. This is what our installation at Kings Cross represents. It may look like a pile of rubbish... but each piece represents a real pressure. From a cost-of-living

The #Budget2024 doesn’t mention our 2.8 million higher education students or the staff that support them once, they deserve better than this. Financial hardship is a key predictor of poor mental health. Read our full response to the autumn budget: https://t.co/c3ZBODlcJS

Suicide is complex and how people act when they’re struggling is different for everyone. Sometimes there are 'invitations' that someone shows. For some people, several signs might apply - for others just one, two, or none. More about suicidal invitations: https://t.co/HQBkQ3tXYh
