NTU, in partnership with the MoJ, hosted a free one-day event to focus on suicide prevention for those on probation supervision

The event drew together national and local stakeholders including policy, academic, public and third sector expertise to consider ways to prevent deaths in those under community probation supervision, with a particular focus on suicide prevention.

The event was to explore how to enhance partnership working across sectors, to collaboratively support a reduction in suicide through considering the specific risks and needs within this high-risk population, including during transition out of prison.

We heard from a range of expert speakers covering both justice and health sectors, scrutiny bodies, academics and lived experience – setting the scene on current landscape, priorities, challenges and suggestions for change, followed by attendees reflecting on actions they could make which may move forward the prevention of suicide in this group.

We held a student hackathon with the RSA and city partners to help tackle economic insecurity.

Many in society say the prognosis isn’t great:

  • you will earn less than your parents;
  • you are facing an ongoing housing crisis;
  • your work futures are under threat due to casualisation and automation;
  • and there is that little thing called Brexit.

We aren’t the many.

We are looking forward to creating a brighter more enriching society. We invited 100 students to work with us to design solutions that will help improve people’s lives. Along with our partners the RSA we have shown that people are experiencing greater (economic) insecurity.

Join us to create an alternative vision.

This event was run in partnership with the Politics and International Relations Department and the RSA.
