Bendigo #safeTALK suicide prevention workshops

2020 Bendigo Suicide Prevention Program safeTALK workshops.

Free community workshops delivered by qualified LivingWorks Australia trainers aimed at Bendigo business but open to any member of the community who feels they could benefit from building skills in identifying people at risk of suicide and learning how to start a conversation to get them help.
