Who is your training for?
Anyone! We all live and work alongside vulnerable people. Suicide doesn't discriminate, so we all need to learn how to prevent suicide.
No previous training is needed, only the desire to learn new skills. An ability to self-reflect and empathise helps.

What is your style?
Expect an interactive and emotionally-engaging learning experience where diversity of cultures, experiences and attitudes are respected and celebrated.
Delivery methods include facilitated discussions, tutor-led roleplay and short films.
How long is the training?
What works best for you? We offer sessions from 90 minutes (online) to two days (face-to-face) and everywhere in between.
Let's talk about your organisation's needs and budget and find the best solution for you.
How do you keep participants safe?
As most of us have been affected by suicide in some way, we take your safety and wellbeing seriously - before, during and after a training session.
We always have an emotional support person available, working alongside the trainer, and together they take time and care to create a safe, open and respectful learning environment from the outset, with a focus on language, respect, confidentiality and self-care.
How much does it cost?
As you might expect, the cost of training varies depending on the length of session, the number of learners and your type of organisation.
Our priority is getting maximum number of people skilled us so let's talk to find a solution that is affordable for your company or community group.
