Madam, - In your Editorial of September 15th you rightly encourage us to do what we can to prevent suicide.
One of the ways we can do this is to become a prayer-friend for HOPE. This is an mnemonic for what prayer-friends do - help others by prayer every day, especially those at risk from the threat of suicide, drug abuse and alcoholism.
Already many people have responded positively to this proposal. Is it too much to dream, or believe, that a committed band of prayer-friends throughout the country could make a difference? - Yours, etc,
Sr CATHERINE TANSEY,
