THE ZERO HEROES HAVE ARRIVED

DONUT LICK YOUR LIPS – DO DONATE

What can you achieve when you do nothing? Well the Zero Heroes are turning ‘doing nothing’ into a real conversation starter. People around the country are challenging each other to eat a donut without licking their lips and share their efforts on social media.

At the same time, they’re opening up about mental health. Why not join the conversation? Grab your donut, film your efforts and post with the hashtag #ZeroLipLick.

WHAT THE ZSA DOES

Suicide is such an emotive word, and it’s a very difficult subject to talk about. But talking to someone who is having suicidal thoughts is so important – saying the right thing could literally save a life.

The ZSA’s FREE suicide prevention training is available to everyone. It means anybody can support someone presenting with suicidal thoughts or behaviour, then help them find the right services or support.

WHY NOW?

Suicide kills more than 6,000 people a year in the UK. It’s the leading cause of death for women under 34 and men under 49. It’s devastating for families, communities and the economy.

The impact of COVID-19 on people’s mental health is still unknown – but we need to be prepared. The effect on suicide rates of the economic slow down in 2008 didn’t hit until 2012 – so the next three years could be vital.

It’s time to take the training. It’s time to fundraise. It’s time to make a change
