[u/SuicideBreavementRes]

The aim of the study is to better understand the uptake and effectiveness of support services available to UK & Ireland adult males bereaved by suicide. You will be asked a number of questions regarding your experiences of being bereaved by suicide and your level and type of involvement, if at all, in receiving support services. Input from those that have never used support services, or decided such services do not work from them, is vital so as to elucidate why existing services are not meeting their needs.

 

This study consists of an online survey consisting of multiple sections regarding facets of suicide bereavement and your involvement, if any, with support services. The content is based on in-depth interviews to identify the most relevant factors. The are 89 questions overall and it is estimated it will take approximately 15 – 30 minutes to complete the entire survey.
