Suicide is one of the leading causes of death amon Suicide is one of the leading causes of death among children in England. The latest Office for National Statistics data shows that 204 suicides were registered among young people aged 15 to 19 years in England in 2024, alongside 18 among children aged 10 to 14. This is an increase from 168 deaths by suicide among 15 to 19- year-olds in 2022.

 But thoughts of suicide can be changed. 

As a partnership, we're supporting this autumn’s Cheshire and Merseyside Suicide Prevention Campaign, joining organisations across the region to encourage open conversations about suicide, reduce stigma and ensure everyone knows where to find help.

Professionals, parents and carers can access funded online training opportunities to help them understand how to recognise warning signs and have open conversations about suicide.

Delivered by the @MYA RAISE Team, suicide Prevention in Children and Young People training will take place on the following dates:
11 September (1.30pm–4.30pm) and
16 October (1.30pm–4.30pm).
BITESIZE option - one-hour: 17th September (12pm - 1pm)

Book your places via the training pages on the website, link in the bio.

Why is self-compassion important, and what is it? Why is self-compassion important, and what is it?

Self-compassion promotes mental and emotional well-being, building resilience and a growth mindset. It helps reduce anxiety and depression by encouraging self-kindness and acceptance, even in the face of adversity. Practicing self-compassion can also lead to healthier relationships and increased motivation for self-improvement. 

When we treat ourselves with kindness and understanding after setbacks or mistakes, we're more likely to learn from them and persist in the face of adversity. This builds resilience and a stronger sense of self-efficacy.  Self-compassion can be a powerful motivational force, helping children and young people to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. 

Delivered by the @myaraiseteam, this Bitesize course provides:
🧠 Insight into self-compassion and the underlying theories 
💛Cultivating your own self-compassion
🫶 Strategies to help gain self-compassion and embed them into your own life

Next event:
