It was a privilege to work on developing this guide for people bereaved by suicide.
Our Help is at Hand booklet is for those grieving someone they love, who has died by suicide.
It covers what you might be feeling, what might be happening, and support options.

BUYER ALERT. Beware if you happen to need a refund then @RandoxOfficial @RandoxHealth for #COVID19 tests as they do not respond to refund requests in a timely manner. Lots of people are VERY unhappy about their customer service.
Today it’s World Suicide Prevention Day - a brilliant initiative to raise awareness that suicide is preventable. We can ALL play our part in looking out for ourselves and others. #WSPD2021

Today is Clean Air Day and with Colchester Borough Council we are launching a new campaign to encourage drivers to take care of their air by switching off their car engines when stationary. #CleanAirDay #cleanaircolchester #carelesspollution
Appalled and saddened by this. The way to motivate people to act for the greater good isn't through the fear of Big Brother and the twitching curtains of their neighbours. Society is already too divisive. We need to stop the dog eat dog mentality. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-54142699
I am really proud to have been working with all the members of @lungtaskforce for the last two years to push for improvements to services on behalf of people with lung disease. For far too long respiratory services have not been prioritised.
Congratulations to @lungtaskforce - shortlisted for the Best Coalition Campaign in this year's SMK National Campaigner Awards. Winners will be announced at our virtual ceremony on 30 September. More details here soon lght.ly/b11licd #lovecampaigning #SMKAwards2020
I am thrilled to see the excellent work of my client: @lungtaskforce acknowledged by @CharityTimes. The Taskforce is an excellent example of the power of working together, with a single voice, to achieve positive change.
We are delighted to be awarded Charity Collaboration of the Year alongside our member, @lunguk. The Taskforce is a collaboration of organisations and individuals who have come together to improve lung health and it is fantastic to see some of our hard work recognised.🎉🫁🎉

I agree that it’s incumbent on everyone to find the connections between us, and build on those to help rebuild our society. Let’s find the commonalities and move on from the differences. #moreincommon #worktogetherforbritain #timeforhealing #unitenotdivide bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51281916
If you cut me open it would say Proud European throughout, just like the writing on a piece of rock. Regardless of whether we are EU members we are still part of Europe and we remain Europeans. ‘Twas ever thus, and will ever be so. Politics can’t touch where I belong #europerocks
