NICE Guidelines: Preventing suicide in community and custodial settings

Public Health England worked alongside the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) to launch NICE’s new guidelines for suicide prevention in community and custodial settings. The guidelines cover ways to reduce suicide and help people bereaved or affected by suicide. It aims to:

• Help local services work more effectively together to prevent suicide.

• Identify and help people at risk.

• Prevent suicide in places where it is currently more likely.
