<p>We are investing at least £2.3 billion of additional funding a year by March 2024
through the NHS Long Term Plan to expand and transform mental health services in England
so that two million more people, including younger men, will be able to get the mental
health support they need.</p><p>This investment includes an additional £57 million
in suicide prevention by March 2024. Through this, all areas of the country are seeing
investment to support local suicide prevention plans and the development of suicide
bereavement services.</p><p>The Government launched a public call for evidence on
what can be done across Government in the longer term to support mental health, wellbeing,
and suicide prevention, which closed on 7 July 2022. We received submissions from
5,273 respondents representing a broad range of stakeholders, including those working
with younger men, from across England. These responses will feed into the development
of mental health and suicide prevention policies we include in the Major Conditions
Strategy and the Suicide Prevention Strategy.</p>
