National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Safety in Mental Health 10th Conference
About this Event

Please join us for our free half day virtual conference presenting the latest UK-wide findings relating to people who died by suicide between 2011 and 2021.

We will examine the circumstances surrounding these deaths, discuss changes in trends over time, and present our recommendations for clinical practice and policy that will improve safety. This year we also present data on certain themed topics, some of which are included because they reflect current societal concerns or groups who may be at increasing risk: autistic people and those with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, in-patients aged under 25, patients aged 18-21 who were students, patients with a one-off assessment, and those who died by suicide in public locations. We will present wider findings from the centre, including our recent report into suicide by people in contact with drug and alcohol services.

We will be joined by our guest speaker Philip Pirie (Suicide Prevention Campaigner) and our event will be chaired by Angela Samata (TedX Speaker and Presenter of ‘Life after Suicide’).

We will also be presenting the winning recipient of the Martin Lawler Research Bursary with their award, details of which can be found here Martin Lawlor Research Bursary Award 2024.docx

All welcome.

We would appreciate it if all attendees could register for this event as there is a limit to numbers, so please do not share the webinar link with others. Thank you.
