We understand this will include investment in real-time data for suspected suicides. This is a crucial resource, which should help to monitor and respond to new concerns, particularly within certain groups or areas of the country. (2/5)

Reports show mental health services for young people are overstretched, those who self-harm are struggling to get support. Government must ensure the funding results in more support, which must come before they reach crisis point. (3/5)

We& #39;d like to see increased support for middle aged men as part of mental health recovery plans, a group who are most at risk of suicide in England. Ensuring that wellbeing and financial support is in place for this group when faced with unemployment. (4/5)

Everyone has been affected by the coronavirus pandemic. It’s natural that these changes can affect our mental health and wellbeing.

Whatever you& #39;re facing, our volunteers are here to listen 24/7 if you ever need support https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📱" title="Mobiltelefon" aria-label="Emoji: Mobiltelefon"> 116 123 https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✉️" title="Briefumschlag" aria-label="Emoji: Briefumschlag"> jo@samaritans.org https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💚" title="Grünes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Grünes Herz">(5/5)
