September 10th Marks World Suicide Prevention Day

Support being given to a loved one who is going through a very tough time, by putting their hand over their shoulder.

Today (September 10th) marks World Suicide Prevention Day, a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and encourage open conversations around mental health and suicide prevention. Every year, over 700,000 people die by suicide worldwide. It’s a global issue that impacts people of all ages, backgrounds, and professions.

At FlexManager, we recognise that mental health is just as vital as physical health. Knowing the signs, checking in on colleagues, or offering support can make a life-saving difference. Sometimes, a simple conversation can be the first step toward hope.
