Data and statistics on deaths by probable suicide
- Mental health
Scottish Government and Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA) published their 10-year suicide prevention strategy in September 2022.
Creating Hope Together and the initial 3 year action plan – 2022 to 2025, on the Scottish Government's website, form the whole strategy.
Every Life Matters (2018) enabled a considerable amount of action and learning to take place in Scotland’s suicide prevention work. This is also available on the Scottish Government's website.
The new strategy develops this to improve our approach to suicide prevention.
The action plan has 6 action areas, including data, evidence and planning.
