About

Ministry of Defence, C&C, Other awarded a contract to The University of Manchester for an update to research originally undertaken between the Ministry of Defence and the University in 2009, incorporating a further 12 years of data on Service leavers.

The study is to understand the rate, timing and risk factors for suicide among those who left the UK Armed Forces between 1996 and 2017.

It includes analysis of data in the Confidential Inquiry into Suicides and Mental Health, as well as a review of coroner's records and inquest hearings for identified veteran suicides to provide more detail on antecedents of suicide, particularly early and recent vulnerabilities, in-service exposures, difficulties after discharge, living circumstances, and contact with a variety of health and third sector providers.

The contract value is £245,565.
