We’re proud to share that Rory Keddie, trustee at Olly’s Future, was awarded a Churchill Fellowship to explore how suicide prevention skills can be embedded into medical education and training for future healthcare professionals.
During his Fellowship, Rory travelled to Canada and India to investigate best-practice suicide prevention models in medical schools and frontline care environments. His research focuses on how to empower medical students with practical, compassionate tools to help save lives.
The report has been supported by Samaritans and aligns closely with our mission to prevent suicide in young people and equip professionals with life-saving skills.
