James’ place are a charity offering free, life-saving treatment to suicidal men at our centres in Liverpool, London and Newcastle.
They stop men dying by suicide. Their professional therapists get quickly to the heart of a man’s suicidal crisis and help him solve it.
They’re unique because there treatment is proven to work, quick to access and delivered in a safe, friendly, non-clinical environment by trained, professional therapists.
James’ place have treated over 5,100 suicidal men since 2018.
They treat men primarily because men consistently account for over 75% of suicides in the UK. We also know that in general men are less likely to access psychological therapies than women: only 36% of referrals to NHS talking therapies are for men, so our founders felt very strongly that designing a service only for men would be more successful at saving lives than one aimed at both men and women.
