This online seminar aims to raise awareness of suicide, whilst also considering how we can support young people and those around them who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Whilst the focus is on suicide amongst those under 35, all panel members are also aware of the emotional strain that foster carers can experience, and the importance of also promoting our own positive mental health.

Its content may be distressing at times. Please be aware and mindful of this. If you are having thoughts of suicide or are concerned for a young person who might be you can contact the Papyrus HOPELINE247 for confidential support and practical advice (papyrus-uk.org).
