About the event
4th Annual Suicide Bereavement Conference: Bridging the Gap Between What We Know and What We Do
The conference is a collaboration between the Centre for Mental Health and Risk at the University of Manchester and Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust.
This event provides an excellent opportunity to network with key people in this newly developing field.
It also provides an opportunity to understand more about the advances being made to support people bereaved by suicide, which is a key area for action in the Suicide Prevention Strategy.
The conference focuses on research, training and practice. We envisage a high demand for this event, so book early to avoid disappointment.
The event is being organised by Sharon McDonnell and Ali Roscoe who are based at the Centre for Mental Health and Risk at the University of Manchester.
