Self Harm/Injury Awareness Day 1st March

Self Injury Awareness Day takes place on 1st March every year. The aim of No Harm Done is to reassure those affected by self-harm that things can and do improve - it can be hard work, and it might feel worse before it gets better, but coming out of the other side is so worth it.

Between 1 in 12 and 1 in 15 children and young people in the UK self harm. It’s often a sign of another mental health problem as is used as a way of relief or escape. It’s dangerous too and can be potentially fatal..
