The research behind it invovled 7000 participants impacted by suicide, led by University of Manchester. express a poignant, personal and full picture of the impact of suicide on the lives of individuals, families, colleagues and professionals.

Are you supporting someone else?

When supporting someone bereaved by suicide, often people fear that they will cause more upset by asking the person about their loss. This is not the case and people bereaved by suicide need the support of those around them now more than ever. We want to help you to feel more confident in supporting someone bereaved by suicide by providing you with information and support.

Connect with others through our Podcasts

At SASP, we have started a new venture into podcasting, with candid, honest conversations about topics that arise after a bereavement by suicide. We hope they will provide information, support, companionship, and a remote friend to those who have been impacted by suicide. To access our podcasts, please go to our stories page.
