HWLincs - End The Trend

HWLincs wants men's help to prevent suicides in Lincolnshire. More than 75% of suicides in Lincolnshire each year are by men – brothers, fathers, sons, uncles, husbands, colleagues, partners or friends. HWLincs wants to bring together a group of men aged 30+ to help create a suicide prevention campaign.

We aim to make suicide something we can talk about openly and end the trend in the increasing number of suicides in the county. We are asking for the views and ideas of people who have been affected by suicide but are now ready to start to help others by steering and co-producing our campaign. Or you might be a group of friends who have been impacted by a suicide close to you and want to provide insight that may help others know there are alternative routes and make people more aware of the warning signs.

For this campaign to make a difference, your knowledge and experience is vital. Only by sharing what would have helped you, a friend or a loved one during a time of need can we help reduce the number of suicides in Lincolnshire.

The campaign we develop together will join a wider Lincolnshire County Council, Shine Lincolnshire and NHS Lincolnshire drive to support men through the Suicide Prevention Fund.

Lincolnshire County Council - Active Travel Fund Survey

Lincolnshire County Council are seeking the views of residents, businesses and organisations on plans to make walking and cycling easier in the county.

The Department for Transport (DfT) awarded Lincolnshire £799,900 to be used to give people more opportunities to choose walking and cycling for their day-to-day journeys, to boost active travel and reduce traffic congestion.

After inviting members of the public to submit their ideas, and hosting a virtual cycling summit with local stakeholders last year, the county council has developed eight prospective schemes.

The schemes being consulted on are:
  • Boston east-west cycling corridor
  • Grantham active travel zone
  • Lincoln and North Hykeham, Newark Road cycle lane improvements
  • Louth active town centre
  • Mablethorpe High Street active travel corridor
  • Skegness Lumley Road active travel corridor
  • Spalding town centre active travel zone
  • Sturton by Stow low traffic neighbourhood
If they are supported by the public, each of the schemes will initially be installed temporarily for between a year and 18 months.

After this time a decision will be made after further engagement with local residents and organisations whether to maintain them.

The survey is open from Wednesday 17 March until Sunday 16 May 2021; complete the survey now.
