Domestic Abuse Awareness - Adult Social Care

In collaboration with Zero Suicide Alliance, Birmingham and Solihull Council are pleased to share a free suicide awareness training e-learning programme. The interactive session brings three scenarios; family, work and a stranger situation leading to sensitive and appropriate responses, communication and signposting.

Some of the key messages in the training tell us that Suicide is everybody’s business, talking about suicide does not give someone the idea , for many people in difficult and desperate situations it  is about ending the pain rather than dying, we take ALL talk about suicide seriously and by addressing the issue we may well help people to recover safely.

This training is aimed at those aged 18 years and over.

As part of the roll out of this training we will be collecting some demographic data but you have choices not to share any detail whatsoever (details of who uses the data and for what purpose are on the next page).

The e-learning is interactive and should be accessible for most users but if you have any difficulty please do let us know and we will share that with Zero Suicide Alliance.
