Top Priorities

• Evidence based suicide prevention interventions

• Suicide prevention training

• Accessible to all professions – not Just NHS

• Transparent content validation

Content – Topics

13

Whole population approach-

• People with serious mental illness

• People with personality disorders

• Suicide attempt survivors

• Self-harm

• Children and young people

• Bereaved through suicide

• Men

• LGBT+

• University / college students

• Substance misuse

Groups are not homogenous

@HINSouthLondon www.healthinnovationnetwork.com

• “There is a danger in focussing just on some groups as we are all potentially suicidal and so we may get a false sense of security if someone is not in a high risk group.”

Telephone Interviews

29 influential leaders or experts in their field

• PHE

• NHS – clinicians & digital leaders

• Police service

• Fire Service

Validity

• Respond to user need and demand

@HINSouthLondon www.healthinnovationnetwork.com

“Overseeing and updating content regularly seems a vital aspect to ensure value & longevity. Validity of websites highlighted also seems crucial, with consideration of national vs local. Mapping initiatives, schemes resources across the country seems a challenging but helpful process.”

audience

resource type, population group &

sector

Easy to find local services & support

@HINSouthLondon www.healthinnovationnetwork.com

”It must be easily navigated, accessible to all (irrespective of role/specialisation etc) and written in plain English with minimum use of professional jargon/acronyms. A virtual 'tool kit' for all those involved in suicide prevention.”
