Being there for someone at risk of suicide
Last year the Glasgow City Suicide Prevention Partnership, supported by Glasgow City HSCP, commissioned Glasgow Association for Mental Health (GAMH) to develop a guide for people who are supporting someone at risk of suicide. The guide is available to help you to take care of yourself and those that you support.
