Dealing With Self-Harm Birmingham

A day to understand and learn how to deal with Self - Harm.

Ever wondered:

1. What is self-harm?
2. Why do people do it?
3. How can I help them?
4. Is there a certain 'way' to help?
5. Can't they just stop?

Have you ever wished you could just sit a self-harmer down and ask them questions? Here's your chance!
