How Do I Get Support?

Tel: 0744 253 0576

Losing someone you love and care about to suicide can be life changing It can lead to the bereaved person feeling the need to isolate themselves from friends, family and the wider community and they are sadly at a higher risk of attempting suicide themselves.

At SAFE (Suicide Aftercare for Everyone), we understand the profound impact of such loss. By actively listening to families and individuals navigating this journey, we've crafted a comprehensive array of services aimed at aiding in bereavement recovery and supporting those affected by suicide loss.
