Recently. LEARN member Jacquie Shanahan attended the Baton of Hope UK Conference in Sheffield and was particularly struck by Professor Rory O'Connor's research into suicide. Take a look at her reflections on what Rory O'Connor had to say: thelearnnetwork.org.uk/post/research-…


As part of their work in #HEMHIT, #LEARNNetwork members Dr. Mark Shanahan Lee Fryatt Jacquie Shanahan and Manju Patel contributed to the Compassionate Communication Commitment in #HE. Now we need the government to provide some legislative/regulatory teeth to underpin it.


Paul Vittles (now on Bluesky Social) Cardiff University ForThe100 Natasha's Dad Thank you for sharing this Paul. it's about time universities learnt from students deaths. and are held to account when they are "careless" in how they deliver education

At Portcullis Hse to meet Stephen Kinnock presenting our reasons for a Statutory Duty of Care at #universities. With one standard & a law to ensure unis ‘act reasonably’ in any relevant situation would help #MentalHealth & reduce #suicides. Everywhere else has the same law, it is so


Great to keep the conversation going with government on #StatutoryDutyofCare in #HE but disappointing that the Minister tasked with suicide prevention does not see it as part of his remit. We desperately need more joined-up government Stephen Kinnock and Jacqui Smith.
