CPSP participating in discussions with pesticide manufacturers and policy makers in Tamil Nadu. Tamil Nadu Lord Advocate Bain QC said: “I am grateful to have had the opportunity to meet with Allan Marshall’s family. The Silver Line – friendship and advice to older people, including loneliness and suicide prevention

Allan Marshall was dragged naked down a corridor with a towel covering his face at Saughton jail in 2015.I welcome enquiries from students interested in pursuing PhD study that uses qualitative/arts-based methodologies on the following topic areas: sociology of mental health, sociological or anthropological studies of suicide/self-harm. Mens’ Shed – support for lonely people who want to actively fix things whilst working on their own issues (not just for men)

Helplines Partnership – helpline directory that includes specialists that support people with suicidal thought My3 Support Network – app that lets users define their three critical people of their support network and allows them to be notified during a time of suicidal crisisRather than being a psychologist or psychiatrist, Amy is a sociologist which means she examines more than just the individual. She explains: “My research focuses on suicide and self-harm. These are topics that are more usually studied using statistical methods. In contrast, my work draws on qualitative, creative and feminist methodologies, and is informed by sociology and wider social sciences such as geography and anthropology.”

You Raise Me Up – financial and emotional support to families who have lost a young adult aged 16-25 Suicide prevention training Suicide prevention as biopolitical surveillance: A critical analysis of UK suicide prevention policies Mr Taylor said: "She had been steeling herself for the operation given the traumatic memories a return to the hospital environment held for her but was also hopeful that this would be a positive step forwards." For the first time, she was hearing the full story. The Lord Advocate also listened to our concerns over the way we were treated after Allan died.” Amy’s work is giving suicide and self-harm research more dimensions, looking at the whole picture, rather than individual cases: “Although much has changed in how suicide is responded to and made sense of, all too often suicide is met with silence, or negative, stigmatising responses. Additionally, it is framed as an individual issue of mental illness, with social and cultural contexts rarely discussed.

The Centre for Pesticide Suicide Prevention: Who we are, What we do (2020) A global health problem: knowing the facts The centre is also developing relationships with regional groupings of national pesticide regulators, including the Asia Pacific Plant Protection Commission (APPPC), to strengthen regional capacity and collaboration on the identification, reporting, regulation, replacement and monitoring of highly toxic pesticides. He said his wife had started to return to academic work and was appointed Chair of the NICE Medical Technologies Advisory Committee. The act of self-harm is most commonly spontaneous, and the majority of people do not intend to die. However, the high toxicity of some pesticides means that just one sip can be enough to kill them. I specialise in qualitative approaches, including drawing on arts-based/arts-informed methodologies.
