Suicide Awareness Day

National Suicide Awareness Day was marked with a truly meaningful day of events and we would like to thank everyone who took part and showed their support.

The suicide awareness walk starting from Ogmore Vale life centre saw a good turnout with people coming together to walk, talk and stand in solidarity for suicide awareness and mental health. The walk created a strong sense of community, reminding us how important it is to look out for one another and to keep conversations going.

Later in the day, we were incredibly encouraged by the amazing turnout for the presentation where Danny Sculthorpe and Phil Vievers shared their powerful personal stories and insights around mental health and suicide awareness. Their honesty, openness and willingness to speak about difficult experiences had a real impact on those in attendance.

We thank everyone who came along, listened, engaged and helped create such a supportive and respectful environment.

Days like this highlight just how vital it is to continue raising awareness, reducing stigma and encouraging open conversations around mental health. Thank you to everyone who walked, attended, supported and helped make National Suicide Awareness Day such an important and impactful occasion.
