Burdekin residents are invited to take part in a free suicide intervention training session on Friday, August 1, aimed at equipping the community with the skills to recognise and respond to early warning signs of suicide.
Hosted by CORES Queensland (Community Owned Response to Eliminating Suicide), the full-day workshop will run from 9am to 4pm at the Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre, 40 Chippendale Street, Ayr.
The program teaches participants how to identify someone at risk, what to say, what to do, and where to go for help. It also encourages help-seeking behaviour before a crisis develops and provides practical advice on supporting others and managing personal self-care.
While the session is not a crisis service, it offers essential tools for anyone wanting to build suicide prevention awareness and support networks within the community.
To attend, RSVP via https://bit.ly/4eObQbG. For more information, contact CORES Queensland at adminqld@kentishrc.com.au or call 0448 894 525.
