To support the cause, on Saturday 7 September 2024 at Buxton’s Pavilion Gardens from 10am to 3pm, our mental health and suicide prevention team will be joined by more than 30 partners to provide information and support around suicide prevention. There will also be arts and crafts, activities for all ages, and live music throughout the day.
And we'll be working with volunteers to hand out suicide prevention and mental health information leaflets to fans at football matches including at Derby County and Chesterfield FC until early October.
If you would like to learn more about how to support people in crisis, we offer free training courses and Joined Up Care Derbyshire is also running a suicide awareness and prevention training session on 10 September 2024.
