What would you actually say if a colleague told you they were thinking about su***de?

That is a difficult question.

And for most people, it is not one they have ever been trained to answer.

P3 Business Care is running Su***de Awareness & Prevention training on 16 September, designed to help people feel more confident recognising warning signs, starting difficult conversations and knowing how to respond appropriately.

The aim is not to turn people into counsellors.
It is to make sure they are not completely unprepared when a conversation really matters.

The course is Qualsafe accredited, and places are still available.

16 September: Su***de Awareness

Most people will never expect to find themselves in a conversation about su***de.

That is exactly why training matters.

P3 Business Care is delivering Su***de Awareness and Prevention training on 16 September, helping people build the confidence to recognise warning signs, respond appropriately and understand how to support someone who may be at risk.

This is not about turning employees into counsellors.

It is about helping people feel more prepared when a difficult conversation happens.

The course is Qualsafe accredited and forms part of P3’s wider focus on creating safer, more supportive workplaces.

It was a real pleasure to meet with Rebecca Wink, Fundraiser at Charlie House, and learn more about the incredible support the charity provides to babies, children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions—and their families.

P3 Business Care is proud to support Charlie House and the invaluable difference it makes across the North-east of Scotland.

August has been about awareness, support and the value of having the right people around you at work.

As we move into September, P3 Business Care will be focusing on something even more serious: su***de prevention.

World Su***de Prevention Day takes place on 10 September, but this is not a conversation that should begin and end on one date.

Throughout the month, we’ll be talking about the role workplaces can play in helping people feel seen, supported and able to speak before things reach crisis point.

We’ll also be sharing more about P3’s new Qualsafe-accredited Su***de Awareness and Prevention training, alongside the wider role of proactive workplace support.

The message at the heart of September is simple:

The right conversation at the right time can save a life.

If workplaces want to support people well, waiting until someone is in crisis is too late.

September is about noticing earlier, talking sooner, and making support easier to reach.

Running a business is rewarding.

It can also be incredibly lonely.

Behind every successful organisation is a business owner or senior leader carrying the responsibility for employees, clients, cash flow, growth and countless decisions that few people ever see.

The truth is, nobody will ever love your business quite like you do. If you’re fortunate enough to have someone who genuinely shares that responsibility, you’ll know just how valuable that support can be.

In my latest blog, The Weight of Leadership, I explore why leadership can feel so isolating, the hidden cost of reactive employee wellbeing, and why creating a culture of proactive support benefits both people and business performance.

If you’re a business owner, director or people leader, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

The strongest financial wellbeing policy still needs a human connection.

Employees may have access to benefits, guidance and an assistance line, yet still say nothing. Shame, fear of judgement and uncertainty about confidentiality can keep support unused until the pressure becomes a crisis.

P3 Business Partners give employees a trusted, independent person to speak to. They can listen early, help someone understand their options and connect them with appropriate specialist support.

That human relationship also helps organisations spot recurring pressures before they become bigger problems across a team.

Proactive care works when support is visible, accessible and genuinely safe to use. If your organisation wants to strengthen that connection, speak to P3 Business Care.

A sudden change in somebody's behaviour may have a story you cannot see.

The Financial Conduct Authority found that one in ten UK adults had no cash savings. A further 21% had less than £1,000 available for an emergency.

For someone without a financial buffer, a repair bill or family emergency can quickly affect sleep, mood, concentration and attendance. That does not mean a leader should diagnose the cause of every change.

It means responding with curiosity before criticism. Ask what has changed, explain the impact you have noticed and make space for the person to talk.

Compassion and accountability can exist in the same conversation.

Do you know what financial support your employees need, or are you guessing?

Only 20% of organisations ask employees about financial wellbeing at least once a year, according to the CIPD.

Without listening, businesses can spend money on benefits that solve the wrong problem. Employees may need clearer pension information, more predictable shifts, help understanding existing benefits or a confidential route to independent guidance.

Anonymous surveys, small listening groups and themes raised through trusted support can all reveal useful patterns without asking employees to expose private details.

Proactive care begins with listening before deciding.

Financial wellbeing is bigger than salary.

Fair pay is fundamental, but employees also experience financial security through predictable hours, understandable benefits, pensions, emergency support, fair progression and access to trusted guidance.

The CIPD warns that there is no single intervention that will suit every employee. A workforce contains different ages, households, responsibilities and pressures.

That is why a useful approach combines fair employment practices with choice, good communication and confidential human support.

A pay review matters. It should sit inside a wider conversation about how secure and supported people actually feel.

Sending someone a support link is easy. Giving them a real chance to use it takes leadership.

An employee may need privacy and time during working hours to call an assistance line, speak to an adviser or understand the help available. Telling them to deal with it after work can add another task to an already overloaded evening.

A team leader can help by protecting a short period of time, finding a private space and quietly arranging cover where needed.

That does not require knowing the details of the conversation. It simply removes a practical barrier to getting help.

Support becomes real when people have permission and space to access it.
