We would like to invite you to help shape our future strategies for mental health and wellbeing, and suicide and self-harm prevention in Wales. It has been 10 years since our previous strategies were published and we have now published the new Welsh Government Mental Health and Wellbeing, and Suicide and Self Harm Prevention Strategies for Wales for a 16 week public consultation. The consultation will close on 11 June 2024.

There are resources available to support you to have group discussions about the strategies. These engagement packs will provide information for you to talk with others to support them to develop their own responses to the consultations. There are adult and young person resources available.
Please contact the Mental Health and Vulnerable Groups Mailbox to request engagement packs for the strategies.
If you work with children and young people and you would like an engagement pack or support to run a session on the new strategies, please contact mhstrategy@copronet.wales
It is important to us that feedback reflects the diversity of our population so please feel free to share this link with others.
