To recognise the ‘signs’ that may indicate someone is having thoughts of suicide
-
To talk openly about suicide with that person and how we ask about those thoughts
-
To understand how to listen to someone talking about suicide – and why that’s important
-
To support a safety plan with someone thinking of suicide
