Refer a child or a young person

Please note: We are unable to take referrals for children who do not know that their loved one died by suicide – more support & information around this can be found on our "Children & young people" page or you can call our team for further advice.
Young people over the age of 18 should self-refer in using the ‘Get support Devon’ form.
