New ZSA Resources

Our ZSA resources have been developed to help!
What are the ZSA Resources?
We know that suicide is complex. There are many factors that can contribute to a person taking their own life. The role of suicide prevention work is not straight forward, it requires change in all areas to support people with their mental health and overall wellbeing.
At the Zero Suicide Alliance we recognise that data and research is vitally important to not only raise awareness of suicide, but to act as a starting point for professionals and community leaders to take meaningful targeted action to help prevent suicide.
Our NEW evidence-based resources have been designed to help you understand ‘the now’ in relation to suicide rates and the factors that contribute to suicide in your area.
Even though every community faces different challenges in supporting people’s mental health, we share learning by highlighting real-world examples of best and effective practice across the UK and beyond.
So what’s new?
