While out running this morning, I encountered a man who was about to jump off a bridge near Rock Creek Park to take their own life
Fortunately, I'm trained in suicide intervention and this person is much better now. But I want to share some of our conversation ⤵️

Hugely important moment recognising importance of suicide prevention voluntary sector - £10m announced in the Budget. A great step forward thanks to @sajidjavid @DHSCgovuk. Obviously still more needed to fund whole new strategy but we'll take the win today! #SuicidePrevention

"I entered this course (#ASIST) terrified of suicide
"I left day 2 feeling empowered & confident I could help a person at risk of suicide"
I could be a partner, friend, child or colleague thinking of Suicide
