14.01.2022 It's great to see AMHF taking the lead on this important initiative. We support their calls on government to create this policy change - which can then lead to change at other levels of the community who are working hard to reduce the terrible impact of suicide generally. We need to reduce all suicide, and developing a Government strategy with a focus on preventing male suicide, will strongly encourage a more nuanced approaches across the board, and can only help to reduce the numbers.
