The Jordan Legacy – Steve’s loss of his son to suicide
Trigger warning: suicide
In this episode, Adam, Chief Executive at Everyturn talks to Steve Phillip, Founder and Director of The Jordan Legacy.
Tragically, on the 4th of December 2019, Steve’s son, Jordan took his own life.
With the aim of preventing future suicides, and ambition to move toward a zero suicide society, Steve established The Jordan Legacy CIC.
'The Jordon Legacy CIC was established in memory of Jordan Phillip. ‘Our mission is to help us move toward a ‘zero suicide society’ which, in our eyes, is a society that is willing and able to do all it can to prevent all preventable suicides.’
The Jordan Legacy is petitioning to the UK Government to introduce a suicide prevention act to seek to minimise suicides. To find out more about this petition and how you can help, visit:
