Suicide Prevention – Support for Males

It’s a sad fact that in Northamptonshire, as is the trend of the national average, males are 3 times more likely to die by suicide than females.

This World Suicide Prevention Day 2025, West Northamptonshire Council and North Northamptonshire Council are sharing stories of males who have lived experience of suicide. We hope this video helps to #starttheconversation around suicide prevention and awareness. If you are worried about someone or need support yourself, you can access support via: Mental health services and support for adults | West Northamptonshire Council or Support Offer | North Northamptonshire Council. Additionally, you can contact the Northamptonshire Mental Health Number on 0800 448 0828 for support 24/7 for everyone, or you can text Chat Health on 07480635531. This video features a suicide prevention bench that is located in Abington Park.
