A new poster campaign in Fort William aims to encourage people with suicidal thoughts to seek help. Suicide prevention campaigner Joyce Wells launched a new initiative in the town this week to help raise awareness of mental health issues and spread the message of suicide prevention.
‘The suicide rate in Fort William is far too high,’ she said. ‘It’s just horrifying. Men, in particular, don’t tend to talk about these issues.’
