Blackpool, Wyre & Fylde Frontline Network Suicide First Aid Training

The Blackpool, Wyre & Fylde Frontline Network are proud to facilitate a full days Suicide First Aid training in association with Lancashire Mind.

Suicide is one of the most common and preventable deaths, yet many people do not know how to support someone who is at risk of suicide. These suicide prevention courses aim to give learners the knowledge and skills needed to prevent deaths from suicide, in workplaces, their personal lives or community settings.

You will learn:

• How to identify the signs someone is at risk of suicide
• How to talk about suicide in a safe and confident way
• How to develop a safety plan with someone who is having suicidal thoughts
• Where to signpost someone at risk of suicide for further support

Learners who can show the required awareness of Suicide First Aid will receive a certificate and can apply to be Orange Button holders.

This event is free to attend for any frontline workers supporting individuals experiencing, or at risk of homelessness in Blackpool, Wyre & Fylde.

Free parking, refreshements & lunch will be provided.

Places for this training are limited to 20 attendees and demand is high so please only book a place if you are able to commit to attending on this date.
