Suicide Prevention
Dr Chetna Kang and Louisa Peacock hear about a campaign to spot the signs of suicide.
Would you know how to spot the signs that someone is suicidal?
A campaign is being launched in Hertfordshire to help raise awareness of how to tell if someone is thinking about suicide.
Today we hear from people affected by suicide to ask if, looking back, they saw the signs.
We'll also hear about the work being done nationally to find out why some suicidal people end their lives and others don't.
