🌍 World Su***de Prevention Day 2025
Theme: Changing the Narrative on Su***de🌱

Every year, more than 700,000 lives are lost to su***de — a silent crisis that leaves countless families and communities shattered. On 10th September 2025, the world comes together under the theme “Changing the Narrative on Su***de.”

This theme reminds us that su***de is not just a statistic, but a deeply human story. By shifting the way we talk about it — from silence and stigma to openness and compassion — we can create space for healing and hope.

🔑 How can we change the narrative?

💬 Talk openly: Honest, stigma-free conversations can save lives.

👂 Listen deeply: Sometimes, being heard is the first step to recovery.

🫂 Offer support: Families, friends, and communities play a vital role in prevention.

🌱 Promote hope: Remind people that recovery and resilience are possible.

✨ Let’s remember: Su***de is PREVENTABLE. Together, by raising awareness and fostering empathy, we can build a world where no one feels that ending their life is the only option.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a trusted person or a helpline. In India, you can call 9152987821 (Snehi Helpline) or 1800-599-0019 (Kiran Helpline) for support.

💛 This World Su***de Prevention Day, let’s commit to changing the narrative — from despair to hope, from silence to connection.🌈

During August we had 2560 appointments booked in, of which 110 did not attend.

1664 minutes = 27 hours 44 minutes.
(That’s about 1 day, 3 hours, 44 minutes)

We understand that sometimes things come up and it’s not always possible to attend your appointment. If you no longer need it, please let us know as soon as you can. This allows us to offer the appointment to another patient who may need it. However, we appreciate this is not always possible.

Thank you to all of those who did attend, this is a great figure!

When you find out you are pregnant, you can refer yourself for NHS pregnancy care so you start care with a midwife right away.

Once you sign up online, the maternity team will contact you to book your first appointment with a midwife.

You should do this by the 10th week of pregnancy, if possible, but it’s never too late to start. If you're over 10 weeks, refer yourself as soon as you can.

‼️ NATIONAL SHORTAGE ‼️ please read…

Due to the current supply issues around Mounjaro, (which are completely outside of our control) we may not be able to fulfil requests for this drug for the next few weeks.

This shortage is expected to be resolved after the 1st of September. At this point supply should be restored. Anyone for who we are unable to get the medication will be issued with it as soon as it becomes available again.

In the meantime there is no need for an immediate switch to other medication, the delay shouldn’t cause symptoms and will be rectified as soon as the supplies are returned to normal service.

We ask that patients order their medications only when they are due and reassure all patients on Mounjaro, that prescriptions will be completed as soon as supplies return to normal and that we will let you know when you medication is ready to collect.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,
Stickney Surgery
