Will your MP use their influence to help save lives?

Suicide-related callouts to firefighers have tripled in the last decade, but training is not mandatory or consistent across the country.

So suicide prevention training for firefighters could have a huge impact on saving lives lost to suicide.

And right now, we have the numbers to move MPs to action.

Let’s email them with the suicide call-out numbers for our local Fire and Rescue services - and urge our MPs to use their influence to help save lives.
 

 

If we take action together now, we could create a flurry of activity from MPs that moves this up the political agenda - and gets us a step closer to making sure all firefighters have the skills and confidence they need to support anyone in suicidal crises. 

Ask your MP to take action:

Please note, we’ll need the first line of your address to add to the letter to your MP, so they can see that you are a constituent.
