Our vision is a world where everyone is empowered to look after their mental health and less people die by suicide. SOS create and deliver innovative approaches that educate, inform and inspire people to cultivate good mental health and reduce stigma leading to less death by suicide. SOS originated and has grown from the lived experience of the founder and many others who have experienced mental health difficulties and who have used our services. We maintain this tradition of ensuring that the voice of the service user is paramount in the design and delivery of all of our programmes and services and in everything we do. Our main aims are: • To fill the gaps in existing services for those who have attempted or contemplated suicide • To break down the stigma associated with mental health issues and ensure that those who experience them have access to quality recovery services that are right for them • To build a society where people embrace their mental health wellness and those with difficulties are treated with dignity and respect and experience a service that offers them hope, a safe place and a positive future • To ensure that the voices of mental health service users are afforded a legitimate place at the table where policies are formed and services are designed To achieve these aims we run a number of programmes in communities and workplaces throughout Ireland. Further details on our programmes are available on our website www.suicideorsurvive.ie Suicide or Survive is a member of Charities Institute Ireland. As such, we are bound by the triple lock system, which means that we adhere to the principles of transparent accounting, good governance and good fundraising.
