Suicide is the number one killer of men under 44 years of age.
It is not just an issue for health and mental health services, but one that must be owned by our community.
We need to do more than merely talk about it. Each of us can play an important role in suicide prevention.

Why not plan to put one of these into the hands of every person in your community or organisation?

- Helping someone who is experiencing suicidal thoughts: things to bear in mind
- Practical tips on how to help
- Facts about suicide
- Factors associated with suicide
