In this In Conversation podcast, we are joined by Dr. Bethany Cliffe, a research fellow at the University of Westminster. Beth’s research interests include self-harm, suicide prevention, and digital health.
The focus of this podcast will be on self-harm and technology.
Discussion points include:

• The prevalence of self-harm in children and young people and which groups are more at risk than others.
• The kind of support that is typically accessed by children and young people who self-harm.
• What the evidence tells us about interventions for self-harm.
• Insight into the BlueIce app – a prescribed evidence-based app – including how it was developed.
• The effectiveness of BlueIce and how it is being assessed.
