The LEARN Network is a community of bereaved families seeking meaning from loss by taking action to prevent future deaths by suicide. We offer expertise in preventive measures and postvention experience in HE, the NHS and the workplace.
We followed up the recent Westminster Hall Debate on a legal #DutyofCare with more lobbying as Douglas Cave and Jacquie Shanahan, together with representatives of @ollysfuture.bsky.social, had a fruitful discussion with @liztwistmp.bsky.social, chair of the Suicide & Self-Harm Prevention APPG.

Real food for thought here from a @uniofsurrey.bsky.social-led team investigating who is responsible for making our universities #SuicideSafe. Very pleased that The #LEARNNetwork has been part of this preliminary project that's likely to lead to further research. www.surrey.ac.uk/research-pro...
