Goulburn Valley suicide awareness walk

The walk will be held at 9.30am on Sunday, September 11, beginning at Yea Railway Station and returning to the station at around 11.30am for a free sausage sizzle.

It is a 6km route and furry friends are welcome to attend, making it the perfect start to a feel-good Sunday.

According to Beyond Blue, three million Australians will consider suicide in their lives and each year, more than 65,000 will attempt it while more than 3000 will die by suicide.

The 2022 theme for World Suicide Prevention Day is ‘Creating hope through action’.

“World Suicide Prevention Day is a chance for us to raise awareness of the impact of suicide in our communities and share support for the people that need it,” Beyond Blue said.
