Save young lives from suicide - lets kill suicide

Suicide is the leading killer of young people in the UK. Everyday an estimated 300-450 young people aged 16-35 in the UK attempt suicide, with rates now at their highest in 30 years. (Office of National Statistics, 2025). 7% of young people have attempted suicide by the age of 17 (Young Minds, 2023) 

Too many lives are lost because the ‘systems of support’ only focus on crisis and leave those who have attempted in a cycle. Behind every number is a life

The system is failing: waiting for crisis, offering only short-term fixes, and leaving the most marginalised to fall through the cracks. That’s why, revolutionary suicide prevention charity, Body & Soul are aiming to break this cycle. We’re calling on the Government to fund a long term evidence-based approach rooted in care, expertise and lived experience and save many young lives by doing so. 

Sign the petition now to call for a proven, equitable long term approach to suicide prevention that reaches those most at risk
