A Toolkit for Supporting Children, Young People and Families Affected or Bereaved by Suicide (PDF)

Not yet rated

"We are delighted to see the production of this toolkit which will help ensure that everyone around a child and young person who has been bereaved and affected by suicide, knows how to respond and support them. In 2019, across South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw we asked people who had been bereaved by suicide what had helped and what was needed going forwards. Many of the people who took the time to share their experiences spoke about the need to support children and young people. We commissioned Chilypep to identify what support children, young people and families would like to see following a bereavement by suicide, and work with them to develop a toolkit for professionals to use with them focusing on how best to offer this support. We are grateful to all the children, young people and families who worked with Chilypep to help do this. Thank you for sharing so honestly your experiences with a view to helping others in the future. Our commitment as Local Authorities and the NHS in South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw is to make sure that anyone working with children and young people know about this toolkit and use it."
