World Suicide Prevention Day 

September 10th  is World Suicide Prevention Day. Every day, 2 people take their own life in Scotland. Simply asking a person how they feel can help save lives. Sometimes it's the first time that a person will have had an opportunity to talk through what they are feeling and experiencing. Providing a listening ear can make a huge difference. Taking time to listen shows you care.
