SUICIDE PREVENTION AWARENESS MONTH
World Suicide Prevention Day (WSPD) is on September 10th. This is an opportunity to start the conversation on suicide prevention. This day should be recognised as a single day offering the opportunity to highlight the issue, acknowledge efforts to prevent suicide, and honour loved ones in a specific and meaningful way.
Statistics:
The Office for National Statistics in UK reports that there were 6,069 suicides registered in England and Wales (11.4 deaths per 100,000 people) in 2023. The suicide rate for males in England and Wales was 17.4 deaths per 100,000 whereas the rate for females was 5.7 deaths per 100,000 in 2023. There were 15 young people between the age of 15 and 24 included in this number.
In Australia, the Australian Bureau of Statistics reports that 12.5 people of 100,000 died by suicide in 2022. Suicide is the leading cause of death among Australians aged 15–24. According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, in 2022, 304 Australian young people (aged 18–24 years) took their own lives. In NSW, QLD and Victoria, Australia 171 males and 57 female were deaths by suspected or confirmed suicide. In 2022 and 2023 there were 2032 cases of self harm in males aged between 15 and 24 and 5994 in females of the same age.
As reported by United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in the US in 2022, there were 49,476 reported deaths by suicide. That is 14.21 per 100,000 people. In young people between 15 and 24 the rate was 13.6 per 100,000 with male rates 4 times higher than female.
One death by suicide is too many and these statistics show that there are many people who need help.
