In November 2016, a Mental Health Strategy for LBBD was agreed. Since then LBBD and Havering have partnered in the development of a suicide prevention strategy and localised action plans.
The Board will be asked to approve the Suicide Prevention Strategy, including the action plan and future monitoring.
The Board:
(i) Approved the Barking and Dagenham, Havering Suicide Prevention Strategy as a current draft;
(ii) Agreed that the Suicide Prevention Steering Group should implement the Suicide Prevention Action Plan and requested that both the Plan and Strategy are viewed as a living document and updated to reflect ‘Thrive London’ and in particular the Mayor of London’s target for zero suicide rate for London; and,
(ii) Requested six monthly progress reports on the delivery of the Action Plan.
