The ‘Towards Zero Suicide’ strategy is a vital initiative aimed at improving the care and safety of individuals accessing mental health services, with a strong focus on suicide prevention and support for suicide bereavement within local communities. The strategy promotes greater awareness of self-harm, suicide, and the importance of compassionate, effective responses. It also provides essential training for staff, helping them listen attentively, act with empathy, and develop the necessary skills to address self-harm and suicidality.
Our goal was to design an informative brochure that effectively communicated the Trust’s critical work in this area. The design needed to raise awareness of these sensitive issues, highlight the importance of timely intervention, and encourage the identification and compassionate handling of such situations. The final brochure served as both an educational tool and a resource to support the important work being done within the community.
Deliverables: A strategy brochure.
