Choose Life - A national strategy and action plan to prevent suicide in Scotland

Every day, around two people die from suicide in Scotland

In 2002, the Scottish Government launched Choose Life, a ten year strategy and  action plan to reduce suicide in Scotland.

Choose Life sets out a framework to ensure that action is taken nationally and locally to build skills, develop training, encourage people to seek help early, improve knowledge and awareness of 'what works' to prevent suicide, and to encourage partnership working and improved co-ordination between services.

Suicide prevention is everyone's business

The Choose Life website is an information and education resource. Choose Life staff do not provide treatment, counselling or advice for those in crisis. If you are feeling suicidal, click here for a list of help lines to contact
