Mates in Mind believe breaking the silence and stigma surrounding mental ill health is a crucial step towards providing a safe and healthy workplace environment, which can play a vital role in suicide prevention.

Research suggests that open and honest communication about mental ill-health supports steps towards suicide prevention, because these important conversations have the power to increase awareness and understanding, remind people they are not alone and help break the stigma which can be a barrier for those seeking help.
