Right now all across England, essential community suicide prevention funding is about to run out, or already has. We need proper support in our communities and if this funding isn’t saved, suicide prevention schemes all across the country may have to stop or be scaled back. 1/2

Former health secretary @sajidjavid lost his brother Tariq to suicide in 2018. He sat down with @samaritans CEO Julie Bentley to discuss how suicide prevention care can be improved, including new training for public sector workers. #R4Today
