💛 Today is World Su***de Prevention Day 💛

Reaching out for support can feel like the hardest step, but you are never alone.

We’ve created this post with contact details of organisations you can call if you need urgent support with your mental health. Please save this post so you have it if you ever need it – and consider sharing it with your networks so others can access it too.

Sometimes, just knowing where to turn can make all the difference.
