The user-led voluntary organisation, founded by Wedge in 2002, to raise awareness about self-injury and help people who rely on self-injury by providing a safe, friendly message board, ideas for distraction techniques and by inspiring / empowering them to find alternative, healthier coping mechanisms. Our resources include guidance for friends, family, teachers and carers, with downloadable factsheets. The FistSigns Professionals section provides specific resources and articles, together with a unique professionals' message board and details of our popular training package.
