#AskNOW – A new suicide prevention campaign by Hull and East Yorkshire Mind and Hull City Council

Yorkshire and the Humber have some of the highest rates of suicide in the country, for both men and women.

HEY Mind are happy to be working alongside Hull City Council on #AskNOW – a brand new suicide prevention campaign which aims to educate local people on suicide prevention, dispel some common myths around suicide and encourage individuals to take action and check in on their friends, family members, colleagues or strangers.

The campaign has launched on social media today and will last for 3 weeks. There is a range of adverts running targeted at both men and women.
