Tomorrow is our Dawn of Hope sponsored walk.

We're proud to be walking in support of local charity Grassroots Su***de Prevention, raising awareness and vital funds for their life-saving work.

As today marks World Su***de Prevention Day, here are four things everyone should know about su***de:

1️⃣ Su***de is preventable. With the right support at the right time, lives can be saved.
2️⃣ You're not alone. Around 1 in 4 people will experience suicidal thoughts in their lifetime.
3️⃣ Recovery is possible. With help and understanding, people can and do recover.
4️⃣ It's complex. Su***de is rarely down to one cause — it often involves a combination of challenges such as mental health struggles, relationship breakdown, financial worries, or bullying.

Brighton businesses are welcome to join us. We'll meet at the Peace Statue at 6am, with coffee and pastries at Malmaison from 7am.

"As a campaigning law firm, we support the causes that matter to our staff and clients.

As a campaigning community law firm, we stand up for the people and the causes that matter to our staff and community.

That’s why we’re proud to be holding our third annual Dawn of Hope sponsored walk in aid of an incredible local charity, Grassroots Su***de Prevention.

We are inspired by our Assistant Office Manager, Amy O’Shea, who has her own personal experience of su***de. This walk is a chance to remember those we have lost, and support those currently struggling with their mental health.
