Consortium for the Prevention of Suicide and the University of Westminster.
Led by Westminster Reader in Psychology and Trustee for the Consortium, Dr Jay-Marie Mackenzie, the conference brought together representatives from several major organisations to focus on suicide prevention in the security industry and cities.
The conference was held on 10 September 2025 to commemorate World Suicide Prevention Day, which encourages people to come together to think about how to support people in crisis and work together to prevent suicides. Over 100 attendees joined the conference, from directors of public health to senior executives of security firms and representatives from the Bank of England, Network Rail and HSBC.
The conference contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3: Good Health and Wellbeing and 17: Partnerships for the Goals. Since 2019, the University of Westminster has used the SDGs holistically to frame strategic decisions to help students and colleagues fulfil their potential and contribute to a more sustainable, equitable and healthier society.
