The Leeds Mind Suicide Bereavement Services offer a safe space to talk and get practical guidance.

Anyone can use our services. For example, if you:

  • Have lost anyone to suicide, such as: a friend, colleague or family member; someone you know professionally or an acquaintance
  • Think someone ended their own life, even if an inquest has not been held or did not determine suicide as cause of death
  • Have been affected by suicide but do not identify as bereaved, e.g. if you witnessed a death
  • Were affected by a suicide months, years or decades ago

Our Suicide Bereavement team. “We get it because we’ve been there.”

We offer Suicide Bereavement Support in Bradford, Calderdale, Craven, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield.

Ways to get suicide bereavement support

One-to-one

If you’re accessing support as an individual, you’ll be assigned a suicide bereavement practitioner who has lived experience of loss by suicide. Through six one-hour sessions, you’ll have the space to talk and explore your feelings, as well as getting practical support.

As a group

You might have experienced loss as a group of friends, or part of a community group. You can receive support as a group with a postvention practitioner, to help you talk to and support each other.
