Today is World Mental Health Day and the theme this year is suicide prevention.   According to the Samaritans, last year in the UK 6507 deaths by suicide last year. This marks a rise of 11% from previous years. Men are currently 3 times more likely to die as a result of suicide and this is highest amongst men aged between 45 - 49 years old. If you or anyone you know is having thoughts of harming themselves please make an urgent appointment with your GP and ask for help.  

There are also charities which can offer support.  These can be found on the useful contacts sheet.  Please feel free to share this with anyone you feel needs it.
