💛 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?

You are CENTRE stage, did you know that?

Today, I had the pleasure of supporting team members on Butlins Skegness. Working in such a busy environment can be tough on anyone, often team members don't have any family or friends locally as they moved to live on resort and start their new career, leaving their old life behind.

Through open conversations, we begin to look at what is on their minds, how we can support/signpost and what those next steps look like.

If you or your business would like a visit from one of our Community Connectors, please do not hesitate to reachout.

We cover East Lindsey, West Lindsey (Market Rasen) Trent and Boston.

💬 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.

This Su***de Prevention Day, we’re encouraging more people to feel confident talking about su***de openly, safely and compassionately.

She only went and did it!! Look at that time too? 6 hours & 36 mins to run 24 MILES!

Kate, we cannot thank you enough for all you've done for Bro Pro UK and, for also raising awareness around su***de prevention!

You deserve that Guiness and hopefully a long soak in the tub.

We will announce the final total once the numbers are in!

If you or anyone is struggling with thoughts of su***de, please dont hesitate to reach out. Pick up the phone, diall 111 and select option 2. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A snapshot of the life of a Community Connector — a day filled with conversations, meetings, ideas, signposting and, most importantly, people. From connecting with local services and professionals to supporting individuals one-to-one, developing our hubs and exploring new opportunities for our communities, no two days are ever the same. Much of what we do happens behind the scenes, but every conversation, introduction and connection has the potential to make a real difference. One day. Many connections. Endless impact.
