Suicide and Co logo

Suicide&Co are a national charity providing free, specialist one-to-one support to people bereaved by suicide. Suicide loss is complex and deeply isolating, and without the right support, many people are left struggling to cope.

As a national charity, they provide professional support and empower self-care, walking alongside people bereaved by suicide so they feel less alone in their grief. Suicide&Co’s three core services include their Early Bereavement Support Programme, offering immediate, one-to-one support during the first six months following a loss; their specialist counselling, providing up to 12 sessions with qualified counsellors; and a free app offering 24/7 access to practical self-care tools, including grounding techniques and guided journalling. Suicide&Co is here to help those bereaved by suicide rebuild their lives around their loss.

Their Founding Story

Bereavement in all forms can be traumatic, however, suicide often brings a range of added emotions to navigate. The team’s passion for helping others deal with this specific type of grief comes from a variety of personal experiences of losing a loved one to suicide. It all started with our co-founders, Amelia and Emma, who both lost a parent to suicide. With their entrepreneurial spirit and empathetic nature, this double act is determined to do things differently; providing the support needed whilst also opening up the conversation and addressing the stigma.

Suicide&Co strongly believe in the power of conversation and use a variety of initiatives to spark conversations and encourage open dialogues around suicide-related grief and mental health more generally.

Their Impact to Date

For World Mental Health Day, Suicide&Co launched their new puzzle – ‘Piecing it Together’. This 1000-piece puzzle was designed in partnership with talented illustrator Sophia Clahar, and invites puzzlers to slow down and explore a home where every room tells a different story of self-care. They will be available to purchase at Spirit of Christmas this year from stand J200 with every puzzle sold directly funding Suicide&Co’s core services, allowing them to continue supporting people bereaved by suicide.

This year, Suicide&Co has partnered with A Noble Gift to offer an incredible prize draw at Spirit of Christmas. Visit their stand to get a ticket for just £10 and be in with the chance to win a once in a lifetime Kenyan safari, with seven days and six nights exploring some of Kenya’s most celebrated safari destinations and staying in luxurious Serena lodges and camps.
