Co-produced with people from the autistic community, our Autism and Suicide Awareness Training aims to: 

• Share information about autism and suicide risk. 

• Share real experiences. 

• Coach you through spotting the signs and supporting an autistic person with four different scenarios (you can choose which ones you want to complete). 

• Share resources for further support. 

Who it’s for? 

This course is recommended for people aged 16 or over. 

What the training covers 

• Understand more about some of the challenges autistic people may face and how these can contribute to suicidal thoughts. 

• Be coached through four bespoke scenarios (you can choose how many you complete) to share how you can support someone.

How long the training takes
