Provide government funded help for children bereaved by parental suicide

Closed 332 signatures

What the petition asks

When I lost my father to suicide at 15, there were no specific charities or organisations to help me. Schools are unprepared yet suicide is the biggest killer of men under the age of 45. A government funded scheme or awareness program will save vulnerable children from added confusion and grief.
