Iceland Foods Charitable Foundation

As proud supporters of Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) we’re helping them spread awareness of the devastating reality of youth suicide in the UK.   In the last decade, 6,929 young people in the UK have taken their own lives. It’s a stat that underlines a devastating truth: so many young lives are ending when they should just be beginning. Right now, suicide is the most common cause of death for those under 24. Together we can END youth suicide.   Richard Walker OBE, Iceland Foods Executive Chairman and Iceland Foods Charitable Foundation Chairman, Tarsem Dhaliwal, Group Chief Executive of Iceland Foods and Trustee of Iceland Foods Charitable Foundation and Iceland Ambassador, Josie Gibson met with Simon Gunning, CEO of CALM and Wendy Robinson, Director of Services at CALM to discuss the issue.

Would you know how to support a young person who felt #suicidal? In partnership with our charity partner, Campaign Against Living Miserably has released a powerful new film that tells the story of Evelyn, who took her own life just months before her 16th birthday. She is just one of the 6,929 young people in the UK who have died by suicide in the last 10 years. Each one, a life lost too soon. Funded by Iceland Foods Charitable Foundation, Campaign Against Living Miserably created the CALM C.A.R.E. Kit to help us all take action to end youth suicide. It’s a step-by-step tool with practical advice on how to protect the young people in your life from suicide. #PleaseShare to help save lives. ❣️ For more information about the C.A.L.M. kit click here 👉 : https://bit.ly/4juq17B Richard Walker OBE Iceland Foods the food WAREHOUSE The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood #youthsuicide #youthsuicideprevention #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters https://lnkd.in/ek-3eK-4
