Sadly that wasn’t to be. So I’m doing it for him, and hoping to raise some money for a charity I work for along the way! Working for the Trust I see first hand the brilliant work everyone does to benefit so many of the most vulnerable in our society."

Help and support is available right now if you need it. You do not have to struggle with difficult feelings alone. We're incredibly sat to hear about the closing of Papyrus, the young person's suicide prevention charity.

110

Together Trust charity @togethertrust.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

This suggests a suicide rate that may be up to five times higher than that of the general population. And women who left care were disproportionately affected, with suicide rates estimated to be as much as 15 times higher than those seen among women in the general population.

Together Trust charity @togethertrust.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Feeling socially isolated and finding it difficult to communicate their feelings can lead some people to have suicidal thoughts. An independent review of early deaths of care leavers revealed that 36% of the care leavers who died are thought to have taken their own lives.

Together Trust charity @togethertrust.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Today is #SuicidePreventionDay We are dedicating our media space to debunk the myth that suicide only affects adults. Sadly, it is the second leading cause of death in children. And autistic, disabled and care-experienced people are at an even higher risk.
