Suicide: Nearly everyone knows someone who has been affected by it. Understanding the signs of suicide, promoting self-help is vital for such a prevalent issue in our community today in order to provide immediate, appropriate services at the point of crisis.

PIPS (Public Initiative for Prevention of Suicide and Self Harm) Belfast is a charity based in Belfast that aims to deliver such support to individuals and their families who have been touched by suicide.

More used to running cases than marathons, three teams of trainee Solicitors and Barristers from the Institute of Professional Legal Studies will be running the Belfast Marathon Relay 2018 in an effort to raise money for this worthwhile cause.

The more money we can raise, the better we can support the vital work being done by PIPS!
