Public Health departments of Berkshire local authorities are preparing a Suicide Prevention Strategy for Berkshire West CCGs and Local Authorities. A report on suicide can be read on the Reading Healthwatch web site. After stakeholder consultation in July/August 2014, the strategy will be presented to CCGs for approval in August/September 2014, and to Health and Wellbeing Boards of local authorities in December 2014. Comments could be forwarded to Karen Grannum, Manager at South Reading CCG.
