Sport can be a lifeline for people at risk of suicide

Hub of Hope, part of the national mental health charity, Chasing the Stigma, have a vision to make suicide prevention as much a part of sport as warm-ups, training and performance: normal, practical and accessible, rather than something dealt with only during a crisis.

They have created a toolkit to give individuals and organisations the confidence, knowledge, skills and expertise to take action, influence positive change and help everyone thrive in your sports environment.
The toolkit can support you with:
💡 Understanding suicide
💬 How to have the conversation
🫶 Taking action in your setting

 

Whether you are an individual or an organisation, everyone in sport, from grassroots to elite, has a role to play in preventing suicide. The toolkit will give you and you organisation the confidence, knowledge, skills and expertise to take action, influence positive change and help everyone thrive in your sports environment.
