Guest Speaker on Suicide Prevention

July 14th, 2010 · No Comments · Club meetings

On Monday night we had Steve Barker from Lifeline who talked on the sombre topic of suicide prevention. He gave some background on suicide in Tasmania and Australia. He then told us about how friends and family are affected by someone attempting or committing suicide. Lastly and most importantly Steve Barker told us about the signs of someone who might be at risk and how our reactions to it can affect that person. Respectful listening was the key to helping someone.
