Self Injury Support was set up in 2004 with the aim to help and support people that were affected by self harm in some way, this included providing information and support to the family and friends of people who self harmed.

Over the years Self Injury Support forged many links with various organisations, charities and other professionals that had an interest in, or dealt with, self injurious behaviour and helped them with training and awareness on the subject of self harm.

In 2008 Self Injury Support was taken over by the Connect Mental Health group who are a mental health organisation that provide information, news and resources on varying mental health subjects.

The Connect Mental Health group is committed to carrying on all the good work achieved so far by Self Injury Support
