Beyond Assumption

Challenging what we think we know about suicide


We are on a journey to change the way suicide is understood, discussed and treated. We fund research into the biological factors that can increase suicide risk— how brain chemistry, genetics, inflammation, and stress systems interact— and how these markers might be identified earlier in individuals. Our aim is to bridge the gap between the scientific research and real world care. Knowledge is hope.

 


How Your Support Helps

You can help us change the way suicide is understood by taking on a challenge for Beyond Assumption! Run, walk, cycle for us and we’ll provide you with fundraising support along the way, including setting up your fundraising page and tracking your donations. 

All donations go directly to the researchers and scientists carrying out life-saving research to help us better understand suicide risk and how this can be treated. For every £1 donated, 90p goes directly to funding research whilst the rest covers the essential costs of operating Beyond Assumption.

Knowledge is hope.
