New suicide figures for the final 3m of 2023 are published by Office for National Statistics (ONS) today, giving us rates for last year as a whole.
It is not good news.
The suicide rate rose 6% from 2022, the first substantial rise since 2018.
The rate was 11.1 per 100,000 people, highest figure since 1999.
We are appalled that the Government is once again singling out arts & creative subjects for funding cuts in Higher Education.
Many courses have already closed and a growing number are at risk.
This attack on the arts must stop now.
