Supporting the publication of the new Staying Safe from Suicide Guidance from NHS England, President of the British Psychological Society Dr Roman Raczka said:  

"Every suicide is a tragedy, and behind every statistic are devastated families and friends that are left behind, so the publication of this much-needed new guidance is very welcome.

"It will make an important contribution to reducing the number of suicides in England and we look forward to seeing its implementation."
