GOLD: Rethink Mental Illness & North West London ICB: A Social Response To Suicide Prevention Using Co-Production, Innovation And Experts By Experience At Its Core

Evidence suggests suicide prevention strategies must include a grassroots approach to decrease suicide rates. North West London Integrated Care Board and Rethink Mental Illness facilitated a social response to suicide prevention with co-production and experts by experience placed centrally. A grant distribution model and offer of suicide awareness training where collaboration, power sharing, and the dismantling of hierarchies have yielded fascinating results. Communities co-produced solutions for themselves where social support and connections led to a decrease in isolation, a sense of belonging, and a community safety net.
