Ogra Shinn Fein National Suicide Prevention Petition

Suicide exacts an enormous toll upon communities right across Ireland. Our nation loses hundreds of lives to this tragedy each year, and many more receive emergency treatment care after attempting to take their own lives through self-harm.

We demand the creation and implementation of an effective all-Ireland suicide prevention strategy. We also call upon the British and Irish governments to take immediate steps towards implementing a national strategy that will promote an integrated, fully resourced, and holistic prevention strategy across all 32 counties of our nation. So that these tragic and preventable deaths become less common and hopefully a thing of the past.
