About this Event

PAPYRUS has been awarded funding by the Armed Forces Covenant Fund to provide fully funded suicide prevention training for those working with or supporting veterans. The aim is to equip participants with skills to identify warning signs, intervene effectively, and reduce stigma around mental health and suicide among veterans. The training is available across the UK.

The key objectives for you to learn to:

• To consider personal and societal attitudes to suicide
• To learn the most widely used suicide prevention model in the world
• To recognise, and act on, the signs that someone is having thoughts of suicide
• To seek a shared understanding of the reasons for thoughts of suicide and identify reasons for living
• To review current risk and develop a joint plan to keep someone safe from suicide, signposting for further help and community resources as needed.
