A new national young people’s advisory group is being launched!
The group is being set up to make sure young people’s views are heard directly by decision makers, to influence government policy.
The group will be aimed at young people who have tried to take their own life, who have suicidal thoughts. It is also for people who have experienced suicide (please note that two years must have passed if you have sadly lost someone through suicide for you to get involved) and those who suffer from poor mental health.
The group will be an advisory group for the National Suicide Prevention Leadership Group (NSPLG) and be supported by Children in Scotland and the University of Stirling. They will also work with the NSPLG to influence policy.
