Every year, people around the world come together on 10 September to raise awareness of su***de prevention and how we can create a world where fewer people die by su***de.

At any one time, around 1 in 25 people are contemplating su***de. On average, two people go on to take their own life every day

These aren’t just statistics. It’s someone’s family, their friends, and their work colleagues. Up to 135 people can be affected in some way by every su***de.

men are almost three times as likely to die by su***de than women, but female su***de rate has increased since 2017.

Having positive conversations about mental health is a key step in su***de prevention. These conversations can help raise awareness, build understanding, and remind people that they’re not alone.

This month, we are reading Anxious People by Fredrik Backman.

"It's New Year's Eve and House Tricks estate agents are hosting an open viewing in an up-market apartment when an incompetent bank robber rushes in and politely takes everyone hostage.

For Anna-Lena and Roger, busy buying-up apartments to fill the hole in their marriage, it's something else to talk about.

For Julia and Ro, panicky parents-to-be, it's yet another worry.

Lonely bank manager Zara only came here for the view.

While 87-year-old grandmother Estelle seems rather pleased by the company . . .

As the police gather outside, the anxious strangers huddled within try to make the best of a very sticky situation - but could it be that they have a whole lot more in common than meets the eye?"
