Expert Self Care Ltd, (ESc) believes it is important for young people to have access to good reliable information in order to make the right choices about their health and be in control of their wellbeing and has developed a free app to provide support, advice and health information for those considering self-harm or suicide. Esc’s founder, Dr Knut Schroeder, a GP said:“This app is designed for people when they’re at their most vulnerable.”
“It can be hard to seek help, so distrACT aims to make that process as easy as possible. The young people we worked with have informed the content and design, so we hope that it can become a reliable source of support during difficult times.” The app is available in android and iphone.
