UpgradeTrigger warning: suicide
Dear colleagues,
I would like to draw your attention to the next steps in our commitment to be a Suicide Safer organisation and to talk more openly about mental health and suicide prevention.
On [date], following on from conversations from World Suicide Prevention Day on 10th September, we will be launching the R;pple (Ripple) browser extension on all of our machines. This ensures more help and support is given to individuals looking for harmful content online, immediately after it detects it has been searched. More information on R;pple is available on the Ripple Suicide Prevention website.
I would also encourage you to take the free 20 minute Zero Suicide Alliance free training to gain the skills and confidence to help someone who may be considering suicide.

The key message is if you have been affected by suicide, you are not alone. If you or someone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts, talk to someone, let them know what is going on and ask for help.
