As the NSPAG prepares to welcome its amazing new Chair and I stand down, my heart is full of admiration and gratitude for all of you working so hard to save others from the risk and tragedy of suicide.
Thank you.
I’ll always stand with you.

At the @YouthLinkScot#YLSConf24 today, and it's started with a sobering bang - @PublicHealthSCO figures talking to the happiness and health of young people show how much youth work is needed now.
