The district community is invited to take part in Lifeline’s ‘Out of the Shadows’ Walk at Finley Lake this Sunday, September 13, from 8am to 10am.
The walk is a gentle, reflective event where people can move at their own pace.
It’s hosted by the Southern Riverina Wellbeing Collective, to follow on from World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10.
You’re welcome to bring your dogs, enjoy a coffee from Odesi Collective and spend time in a supportive, welcoming environment - you don’t even have to walk to be involved.
More than 3,000 Australians lose their lives to suicide each year, and the walk offers a space to remember loved ones, support those experiencing emotional distress and raise awareness of the importance of crisis support and suicide prevention services.
• Anyone requiring crisis support can contact Accessline on 1800 800 944, Lifeline Australia on 13 11 14, BeyondBlue on 1300 224 636 or Kids Helpline on 1800 551 800. Pathways to help can also be found at www.southernriverinawellbeing.com.au.
