Charity calls for national suicide prevention authority
Marking World Suicide Prevention Day, chairman of Suicide Prevention charity 3Ts Noel Smyth said a recent announcement of €1m for suicide prevention was inadequate and a “drop in the ocean”.
3Ts will stage candlelight vigils for those who have lost family, friends and colleagues through suicide in Dublin tonight at College Green between 8pm and 9pm, and in Galway at St Nicholas Collegiate Church at the same time. Another vigil will be held in Wexford between 8pm and 9pm at The Bull Ring in Wexford.
