From Harm to Hope: Self Harm and Suicide Prevention Conference 2027

An inspirational day of learning and collaboration.

Join Harmless – the national centre of excellence for self harm and suicide prevention – as it leads National Self Harm Awareness Day 2027 with its annual flagship conference. Featuring a range of expert speakers and leading academics, this is your opportunity to join delegates from across the sector for an engaging day of specialist and evidence-based content. Fully CPD-accredited, the conference will deliver knowledge and practical solutions for implementation in real-life situations, as well as the chance to network and share experiences. 
Our theme for this year's event is In The Eye of the Storm: Strengthening Support for Self Harm & Suicide Prevention.

As at previous events, our strategic focus will be on:

• Collaborative Partnership

• Service-User Representation

• Effective Practice

• Driving Change

• Overcoming Stigma and Discrimination

For 2027, we are delighted to be returning to Trent Conference Centre, Nottingham’s leading independent events venue. A complimentary hot lunch is provided. Delegates unable to attend in-person can also participate via a live stream. We hope you can join us to learn, collaborate and contribute to what is always a fascinating and memorable event.

The conference format includes plenary presentations and a series of breakout workshops. In-person delegates will be able to choose their breakout workshop sessions in advance.

PLEASE NOTE: Online delegates will be unable to choose which breakout workshops to follow live as we are unable to broadcast them all simultaneously. However, all workshops will be recorded and available to view online at the conclusion of the conference.

For access to this quality, specialist, evidence-based and CPD-accredited event, tickets are priced at just £130 per delegate for in-person admission or £80 per online delegate. All funds raised through ticket sales go towards covering administration costs and to help Harmless sustain its life-saving support for those impacted by self harm and suicide.
