On World Mental Health day, we mark a pivotal step forward in our mission to support the mental health of the UK’s healthcare workforce.
The Laura Hyde Foundation is proud to announce a new partnership with @Frontline_19 1/3
Today we know how much more there is to do and the challenges that brings.
Today is about you Laura.
Bear with us today if you are getting in touch. We often use this day as a team to ensure we are all ok ourselves.

Today would have been Laura’s 35th birthday.
Today we reflect on how much we miss her and her well renowned laugh.
Today we feel proud of what we have done in her name by helping the thousands of emergency workers avoid suicide.

Record number of calls from nurses to mental health support helpline is likely linked to the Lucy Letby case, says charity @LhFoundation

Its a honest, accurate and personal view that is beautifully filmed and we are proud to be contributing to the postvention guidance that has been built.
The toolkit has been included in the Suicide prevention strategy for England: 2023 to 2028, which was published also this week.

Addressing suicide within the health workforce is a recommendation within the strategy.
We are delighted to see that the national suicide prevention toolkit has now been published on the NHS England webpages. See below for the direct link

We have worked with our independent experience with NHS England to contribute and shape the toolkit.

Happy #InternationalNursesDay to all the members of the nursing teams both near and far, across the world. 🗺️
These past few years have been beyond challenging and many staff have left. We continue to do our upmost for people in our care but don’t forget to look after yourself.
Note that we will be taking today as a moment to reflect as a team on our own mental health however our support services remain fully operational.
Ensure you look after your friends, colleagues, your family but most importantly of all, yourself.
💜
