Abstract
A RECORDING OF THIS EVENT IS NOW AVAILABLE HERE.
Secondary Schools and Colleges provide help and support to young people who experience self-harm, suicide ideation, and in the wake of a death by suicide. These organisations report use of guidance to manage and respond to student need. In order to understand how young people felt about this guidance, drawing on their own experiences when in need of support, we recruited a young people’s advisory group to inform our work. In this session, I will talk about the considerations the 4S team had when setting up and working with this group of young people.
This second talk will be delivered by Franki Matthews, researcher and lecturer in Public Health from Medical School at the University of Exeter.
