Thanks so much for all your help. Just one more query. I am unsure on a range of personel health skills that promote/maintain health relevant to suicide. For example ( in relation to CVD) Consume a diet low in salt and fat, also only drink alcohol in moderation. Thanks gain.

Q.1/ Prepare a fact sheet suitable for educating your peers about suicide. It is to be one A4 page only( front and reverse). Required information includes:-
* Nature of the problem
* Extent of the problem
* Risk factors and social determinants
* Groups at risk
Where do i find the skills for mental health? Thanks.

Any help would be much appreciated, Thanks.
