Lived Experience Panel Evaluation

A key feature of implementing the Scottish Government’s ‘Every Life Matters’ Suicide Prevention Action Plan (2018) was the emphasis placed on the involvement of people affected by suicide.

SAMH, working with partners, hosted a National Suicide Prevention Lived Experience Panel (LEP) of up to 14 people to help place the voices of people affected by suicide at the forefront of the delivery of this strategy.

At the end of three years, SAMH commissioned The Lines Between, a social research agency, to produce this independent evaluation report.
