The Suicide Prevention Network, hosted by ADPH London and OHID London, brings together London’s public health system to strengthen local and pan-London approaches to suicide prevention.

Local authority public health teams lead suicide prevention locally—coordinating action plans, addressing risk factors, and working across systems. This network provides a focused space for shared learning, collaboration, and evidence-led practice.

Who it’s for
London local authority Suicide Prevention Leads and public health colleagues, with relevant partners joining where appropriate.

How it works

• Meets quarterly (three online, one in-person)
• Member-led, practical sessions
• Opportunities to share learning and connect across boroughs

Aim
To support members to:

• Strengthen local suicide prevention action
• Share learning and evidence across London
• Build partnerships that support coordinated responses
• Improve outcomes for populations at higher risk

Why join
ADPHL networks support knowledge sharing, connection and system-wide insight, helping translate learning into local impact.

Network Leads:

• Dr Jackie Chin, CPH, OHID London, Network Chair
• Rosa Treadwell, Public Health Strategist at ADPH London, is the network co-ordinator

Related networks
