New funding for suicide prevention
SAMH welcomes the announcement today of significant new funding from the Scottish Government for suicide prevention.
We all have mental health
We all have mental health, just as we all have physical health, regardless of what age we are.
Which is why SAMH is building a movement of people to campaign for better mental health support for young people, at the earliest opportunity.
Over 2,000 of you have joined the Going To Be campaign, and collectively our voice has helped push child and adolescent mental health up the Scottish Government’s agenda. But there’s still more to be done.
Would you like to join us?
Can you help?
Talking is one of the first steps to improving mental health. It can help someone who is at their lowest point. It could save someone’s life.
