New data shows a concerning rise in suicidal thoughts, attempts and self-harm in the last decade. Suicidal thoughts have increased to 1 in 4 up from a previous 1 in 5. Itโ€™s clear that investment in suicide prevention is non-negotiable.

You donโ€™t need the perfect words to support someone who's struggling. Just being there, listening, and showing you care can mean more than you realise. Weโ€™ve put together some words for when finding the right ones feels tough ๐Ÿ‘‡
