Story
On average around one person, a week dies by suicide in Cumbria, more than double the amount that dies on our County's roads. Every death by suicide is an avoidable tragedy. Suicides are preventable. We need a society where people feel able to reach out for help. Where members of our communities have the knowledge and skills to recognise when someone is at risk and to know how to offer support. And services that are accessible and effective. Suicide is everyone's business. Every Life Matters is a Cumbrian charity that offers training on suicide prevention and intervention to people who live and work in Cumbria. Visit our website today and learn what part you can play.
