Talking Helps to Keep People Safe

As part of its #KeepTalking campaign this winter RSABI has produced a video, filmed on a farm in Aberdeenshire, which seeks to improve understanding about suicide and how everyone can play a part in prevention.
Created with input from Scottish Action for Mental Health (SAMH) and Police Scotland, the film highlights the benefits of talking about suicide and better understanding the steps we can take to make a difference.
One of the strong themes of the video is hope, along with the clear message that becoming more comfortable talking about suicide will help to save lives.
There are many organisations which can offer help, support and advice.
If you have a question about mental health, please contact the SAMH Information Service, open Monday to Friday, on 0344 800 0550 or visit its website at www.samh.org.uk
If life is hard right now, Samaritans are here to listen - day or night, 365 days a year. You can call them for free on 116 123 or visit www.samaritans.org for more ways to speak to a Samaritan.
RSABI runs a 24 hour freephone Helpline - 0808 1234 555 - and a webchat service at www.rsabi.org.uk . Please don’t hesitate to contact us.
