💙 SUICIDE PREVENTION CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED![]()
![]()
A campaign to combat the rising number of police officer suicides has been launched this week (Monday 24 March) with an immediate aim to raise awareness of the traumatic experiences faced by cops every day.![]()
The Suicide Trauma Education Prevention (STEP) initiative is an effort to help officers around the topic of suicide in various guises, including the response to incidents where a member of the public has taken their own life.![]()
Across the 36 months of 2015, 2016 and 2017, there were an estimated 60 suicides among police officers and police community support officers (PCSOs) in England and Wales.![]()
In a 33-month period between April 2021 and January 2024, 80 suspected suicides were recorded among police officers and staff.![]()
Branch chair Liz Groom is backing the campaign: “By its nature, policing is a job full of demands and stressors that would be enough to test anyone.![]()
“Those in the profession see things on a daily basis which the vast majority of the public are insulated from. This includes violence and self-harm all the way up to death and suicide.![]()
“I think it only right, therefore, that officers get support that is bespoke to the job, beyond the wider advice already out there – the more specific, the better.![]()
“And now we have something place with a focus narrowed down to suicide, I hope we can really start getting down to the details of why a police officer might want to take their own life.”![]()
