Jonathan’s Voice and IP Inclusive present
The Next Chapter of Suicide Prevention:
Hope, Progress and Possibility
Wednesday 9 September, 12.30 – 1.30 pm, online
As we mark World Suicide Prevention Day, join Jonathan’s Voice and IP Inclusive for a thought-provoking fireside conversation with leading suicide researcher, Dr Susie Bennett.
Over the past two years, our Changing the Narrative series has explored how we understand suicide and how we respond to distress in high-pressure professions. This year, we look ahead.
What does the future of suicide prevention look like? What are we learning from the latest research? And, most importantly, what does that mean for organisations and individuals who want to create workplaces where people feel supported long before they reach crisis?
In this hopeful and practical conversation, Susie will share insights from the forefront of suicide prevention research, including emerging approaches to community-based support, improving services for those most at risk, and developing practical resources that can make a real difference.
Whether you are a patent attorney, trade mark attorney, IP solicitor, HR professional, manager or wellbeing champion, you’ll leave with:
-
A fresh perspective on the future of suicide prevention.
-
Practical ideas you can take back to your own organisation.
-
Greater confidence in the role workplaces can play in creating cultures of connection, compassion and early support.
-
A renewed sense of hope about the progress being made in suicide prevention.
Meet the Speaker
Dr Susie Bennet
My work sits at the intersection of rigorous academic research, lived experience, and real-world impact. I have developed a strong track record of translating research into practice – leading large-scale knowledge-sharing events across the UK, developing widely accessed public and professional resources, delivering training and webinars to diverse audiences, and contributing to national discourse through media and podcast engagement.
I am currently leading the establishment of the Centre for Male Suicide Research – a dedicated centre focused exclusively on male suicide. The Centre is designed to scale high-quality research and strengthen professional responses to men in suicidal crisis, with the aim of delivering measurable change in prevention, policy, and practice.
