💛 How are we changing the narrative around su***de? 💛

Changing the narrative means moving towards more open, compassionate and supportive conversations about su***de — and recognising the part we can all play.

This Su***de Prevention Day, members of our team share the ways they are helping to change the narrative, from listening and talking openly to challenging stigma and making sure people know where support is available.

Small actions can help create safer conversations, stronger connections and more hope.
How are you helping to change the narrative?

💛 What gives you hope?

For World Su***de Prevention Day, we’ve been asking people across the East Lindsey South area a simple but powerful question:

“What gives you hope?”

Hope can look different for everyone. It might be the people we love, having something to look forward to, a kind conversation, or simply knowing that someone is there.

We’re sharing some of the answers from our wonderful community. 💛

What gives you hope? Share yours in the comments, you never know who might need to hear it today.

💬 The words we use matter.

The way we talk about su***de can help challenge stigma – or unintentionally reinforce it.

Sometimes, phrases we’ve heard and used for years can carry judgement or make it more difficult for someone to talk openly about what they’re experiencing.

For World Su***de Prevention Day, we’re sharing some simple examples of language we can all use to make conversations about su***de more compassionate and supportive.

Swipe through for some “Instead of this, try this” examples. ➡️

We won't always get every word right. What matters is that we keep learning, keep listening and keep talking.

💛 This week, we’re changing the narrative on su***de.

Thursday marks World Su***de Prevention Day, an opportunity for us all to think about the way we talk about su***de, challenge stigma and create spaces where people feel able to speak openly about how they’re feeling.

Changing the narrative starts with conversation. It means moving away from silence and stigma and towards openness, understanding and compassion.

Throughout this week, we’ll be sharing ways we can all play a part – through the words we use, the conversations we start, the way we listen and the connections we make.

Because su***de prevention is something we all have a role in.
