Understanding – The Suicide Prevention and Self-harm Strategy for Wales

Wales has a ten-year suicide prevention and self harm strategy called Understanding

The ambition is to reduce the number of people who die by suicide; provide holistic and person-centred support for people who self-harm; and support those affected by self-harm and suicide.​

The strategy is supported by a three-year delivery plan 2025-2028​

To note: England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland each have their own suicide prevention strategy​
