This important book examines how to navigate a bereavement by suicide.

He reflects on what we can do – as individuals and a society – to reduce the stigma around suicide and promote understanding. He offers practical advice to help those affected with their grief.

One study estimates that 115 people are affected by every suicide, with 1 in 5 reporting that this experience had a devastating impact or caused a major life disruption. This book focuses on supporting those affected.
