Creating Hope - Data & intelligence

Welcome to the Creating Hope podcast, powered by Public Health Scotland & Suicide Prevention Scotland. In each episode of this limited edition series we’re exploring a key area of work within suicide prevention, and how this can be implemented locally.

Our host, Rob Kelly (suicide Prevention Implementation Support Lead, Public Health Scotland) is joined by Mary-Grace Burinski (Senior Health Promotion Officer, Fife Health & Social Care Partnership), Andrew Murray (Principal Information Analyst, Public Health Scotland) and Shirley Windsor (Organisational Lead, Public Health Scotland).   Key links for this episode: Home - Suicide Prevention Scotland.
