Join Professor Rory O'Connor with guests, Professor Keith Hawton CBE and Professor Michael Eddleston as they discuss the restriction of access to means for suicide prevention. 

This podcast episode contains discussions that include mentions of methods of suicide. We understand that this content may be distressing for some listeners. Please prioritise your well-being; you may choose not to listen if you feel it could be upsetting. If you or someone you know is struggling, we encourage you to reach out to a trusted support network or a local crisis helpline. 

We also acknowledge that sharing details of suicide method and location when discussing suicide should be avoided. Safe language aims to reduce the risk of harm whilst increasing awareness and understanding of suicide and its complexities. 

Discussions of suicide can be overwhelming; if you are struggling and would like to seek further support, we encourage you to visit Find A Helpline, where you can connect to helpline support near you.
