Let’s talk about … men and suicide
Monday 1 September
Too many men are struggling in silence.
A free community event will take place on Monday 1 September for anyone aged 16 and over who may be experiencing suicidal thoughts, concerned about someone, or affected by suicide in any way.
The event is a powerful opportunity to come together, hear from people with lived or living experience of suicide, and learn how we can all play a part in helping to prevent it.
You’ll hear from voices across our community - including speakers from The Neuk, The Samaritans (local branch), the University of Dundee, and the Health and Social Care Partnership.
Join us for an open and honest panel discussion about why talking really can save lives. You’ll also have the chance to connect with local suicide prevention partners in a relaxed, world-café style space.
We’ll highlight some of the support available locally and break down common myths around suicide.
The event will take place on Monday 1 September from 6.30pm until 8.30pm at North Inch Community Campus, Gowans Terrace, Perth.
Book your space at Let's talk about... men and suicide event - Perth & Kinross Council
