World Suicide Prevention Day: accessing support
Every year on September 10th, World Suicide Prevention Day (WSPD), a day dedicated to raising awareness about suicide, promoting mental health, and encouraging action to prevent one of the leading causes of death globally is marked. Suicide claims approximately 700,000 lives annually, with many more individuals attempting suicide. The day, initiated by the International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP) and endorsed by the World Health Organisation (WHO), encourages a global conversation around mental health, the importance of early intervention, and the need for supportive communities.
