Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, and with that comes a trigger warning as this post will be making reference to Suicide Did you know that Suicide is the leading cause of death in young people in the UK? Experiencing these thoughts and behaviours can cause us to feel so lonely and isolated. Yet one in four adults have had thoughts of suicide in their lifetime. If you think about how many people are in your class/lecture/office/gym etc, statistically there are multiple people in the room experiencing this too.And in those moments where you are feeling like you have no one to turn to, you have a ready made hype group in your cheer team. And don’t forget about your coaches too – they want you to be and will help you to be your best, mentally & physically! And in those moments you can’t bring yourself to go to training, trust me you will feel so much better afterwards.

There is such strength in reaching out for support.

There is such strength in engaging with professional support.

There is such strength in getting out of bed in the morning when all you want to do is escape the world.Even us in the CFHTT team, we’ve experienced concerns with our mental health.
