Preventing suicide in Rotherham
Nobody should feel that suicide is the only way out of their current situation. Everyone should have easy access to support and advice when they are feeling depressed, scared and alone. 'Be The One' empowers Rotherham people to talk to someone they are worried about, whether a stranger or someone they know, listen to this person to help them feel less alone, and to care about those around them to prevent people from reaching the point of suicide.
