Samaritans webinar: How to listen
Event date
29 Jun 2023
This webinar is the fifth and final in a series of five webinars we are delivering in partnership with Samaritans. These sessions investigate some challenging subjects including self harm and suicide, which we recognise will be difficult for some. We are committed to supporting the mental health of everyone working in UK policing and hope that by openly talking about these subjects we can help to raise awareness, reduce stigma and give you the tools to sensitively manage any connected issues locally.
What you will learn:
- Tuning into signs that someone might be vulnerable.
- Starting a conversation…and being gently persistent.
- SHUSH tips.
- Supporting the person… not fixing the problem.
- More about how the Samaritans can support you.

Once you have registered you will receive a Teams link for the webinar a few days before the event.
