Suicide Call Back Service Support Forum

Description:

The Support Forum consists of two separate message boards - one targeting carers and another for people who have been bereaved by suicide. Each message board includes a range of topic areas and registration provides you with full access to both message boards. You can edit your ‘user control panel' - allowing you to personalise your profile/settings, create ‘friends and foes lists' to organise other members, and join specific usergroups (eg newly registered users). The forums include a search facility and you can add new topics or respond to existing topics. All posts are reviewed by a moderator.
