World Suicide Prevention Day 2025

Описание: World Suicide Prevention Day 2025 is a chance to reflect, raise awareness, and take action. Every suicide has a devastating impact — it’s estimated that up to 135 people are affected every time a life is lost.

In this video, I share the latest UK suicide statistics from 2023, compare them with global rates, and explore the real economic and emotional cost of suicide.

I’m also joined by Julie Bentley, CEO of Samaritans, to discuss men’s mental health, inequality, and why human connection matters more than ever.

We’ll also look at the challenges of mental health in the digital age, from loneliness and burnout to the growing role of AI — and how technology can both support and strain our wellbeing.
