Story

Suicide is common. Suicide is devastating. Grassroots works to prevent it.

Our aim is simple: get people talking openly and effectively about suicide, because talking saves lives. Through our suicide prevention training, we've helped over 15,000 people learn how they can keep themselves and others safe from suicide. They've used our training to literally save lives.

Cutting edge, front-line, hands on, LIFE SAVING resource, made highly accessible and instantly applicable. The kind of training that keeps people alive.

And we want more.

£20,000 pays for 350+ places on lifesaving suicide prevention training. That's 350+ people ready to help those in crisis. 350+ workplaces/groups/communities better supported. Thousands of people made safer from suicide.

So we need your help.

Support our incredible team of Grassroots Runners; their miles on the road lead to lives saved. Donate, share, maybe even join!

I believe that the confidence I gained in the training somehow transmits to others, who seem to gain confidence to say things they have never said before.

About the charity

We work to make sure nobody has to experience thoughts of suicide alone. We fight dangerous stigma that stops people talking about suicide. We teach communities to recognise and support those at risk. We develop new ways for people to get lifesaving support. Together, we can prevent suicide.
