World Suicide Prevention Day 2021

10th September marks World Suicide Prevention Day 2021.

The international theme this year is set around ‘Creating Hope Through Action,’ with the focus being on exploring the complicated idea of ‘hope’ in suicide prevention.

The impact of COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdowns across the world has meant that the last 18 months have been important for awareness around suicide prevention.

Each year, in September, organisations and communities around the world come together to mark World Suicide Prevention Day, with the aim being to raise awareness of how we can create a world where fewer people die by suicide.

Our main aim in The Virtual Tavern is ‘togetherness’. Creating a space where people can come and forget the stresses of daily life, to share our stories and to comfort each other in times of need.

Let’s help create a world where everyone feels safe enough to ask for the help they need xxx
