Community Broadcasting Suicide Prevention Project - March 2022

What's in this month's segments?

This month we encourage people across Australia jump in the water in March for Laps for Life, a month-long swimming challenge that raises funds for, and awareness about, youth mental health and suicide.

We learn about the suicide intervention training that LivingWorks provides, including to the military and veterans’ communities.

We learn about the new We Are Lonely podcast, which aims to spark meaningful conversations across the country about what it means to be lonely in Australia and the role loneliness plays in our lives.

We catch up with James Gillespie, the Workplace Champions Manager at R U OK?, to find out about some simple steps we can all take to ensure we increase a sense of belonging and connection in our workplaces.

And we learn about the translated resources PANDA has developed to ensure parents from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds have information in their own language.
