Out of the Shadows and into the Light Walk

Come along and join us to walk for those lost to suicide.

The night will start with a free sausage sizzle at 5:30pm followed by guest speakers at 6pm, who will be speaking about mental health services available in our region.

The Walk commences at 7pm, and we will walk to the West Beach (Near the Foreshore restaurant) and back to the Burnie Park. At the park, there is a Suicide Memorial Garden where we will gather to have a minute’s silence to remember those lost to suicide.

In addition to the formalities of the evening, our aim is to provide the community with a safe and compassionate environment where those affected by suicide can find support and comfort surrounded by people who genuinely care and understand what they are going through, through their own lived experiences.

The event also aims to help remove the stigma that’s all too often associated with having open and honest dialogue about such a deeply emotional but important subject.
