This handbook is packed with useful facts, figures and contacts. It is designed to help you do your job when covering these stories, whether you’re a print, broadcast or magazine journalist.
The handbook also contains tips on how best to avoid causing needless offence - or worse - to your many readers and viewers affected by mental health problems. They apply whether you are covering a murder, a suicide or in fact wherever mental health crops up in the news, which can be pretty much anywhere. Our aim is to help you cover these stories properly and, at the same time, improve public understanding and avoid adding to the problems faced by people with mental health problems.
