It can be very easy to talk about certain things and near impossible to talk about others.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mental health and Suicide awareness is so important in todays busy world. Suicide is the main cause of death in young people under the age of 35 in the UK and around 3\/4 of them were boys or young men. As part of our newly launched ‘Shine a Light’<\/strong> campaign, Sylvania Group UK has partnered with PAPYRUS<\/strong> and together we want to shine a light this difficult subject.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
