About this Event

STOP Suicide Workshop: High Risk Communities

Suicidal thoughts are more common than you might think – one in five people in the UK will experience suicidal thoughts in their lifetime.

Our expert Training Team at Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and South Lincolnshire Mind (CPSL Mind) run suicide prevention training across Peterborough and Cambridgeshire.

Come join us at our new suicide prevention workshop focused on supporting high-risk communities - neurodivergent, LGBTQ+ and migrants. This workshop will be held in Cambridge, please check our other event listings for the other date and venue options.

Due to funding, these online open courses are free to attend for individuals who work or volunteer for VCSE organisations with high risk groups, carers/ family/ supporters of individuals who are at increased risk of suicide and members of the public who wish to learn suicide prevention skills who live in Cambridgeshire or Peterborough.

This workshop will equip you with the knowledge to spot warning signs, ask directly about suicide, support someone to stay safe and look after your own wellbeing.

Safety warning - Please consider your own emotional wellbeing before signing up for this course. If you have been bereaved by suicide, or affected by attempted suicide or suicidal thoughts, you may find the content difficult.
