Alice Newton-Leeming has worked and studied within the field of suicide prevention for over 15 years. Completing her psychology degree in 2011, and volunteering as a Samaritans Listening Volunteer, Alice quickly moved into a role for a national Suicide Prevention Charity in the UK, and progressed to managing a national helpline and training team around the country, delivering training relating to suicide prevention.
Alice has worked for organisations such as Mind, Mental Health Learning, Listening Ear, Every Life Matters and YoungMinds providing emotional support, suicide bereavement support and training to equip others to support those around them.
Alice also has a passion for supporting others to understand how to look after their own wellbeing. She is a strong advocate for self-care and implores anyone she meets to make time for themselves, because we all deserve it.
In her spare time Alice enjoys reading, yoga, country walks, running, cycling and spending time with her husband and two young children.
