Posted on
Harmless is proud to announce that we are hosting our third online Suicide Bereavement conference to examine the practical application of working in the field of suicide bereavement, every Tuesday and Thursday between the 6th of September – the 29th of September 2022.
The Theme for this year is * Practical Applications: Working with Overlooked Communities – I wanted to make you aware of this excellent opportunity to be part of this change along with all of the outstanding work you do within your area and how seriously you take the mental and physical wellbeing of your communities whilst striving to tackle the multicomplex socioeconomic issues of today’s climate.
I devastatingly lost my partner to suicide in 2016 during the perinatal period, so know all too well the need for better education around the topic of suicide, which is why I am now working for Harmless, trying to ensure the UK and beyond become a safer place to be, a place where people have to tools to engage with those in bereaved or in crisis, and where those in crisis can reach out without fear of judgement or stigma, so with that in mind please see details of the sessions and Eventbrite booking links below:
Practical Applications: Working with Overlooked Communities
Every Tuesday and Thursday between the 6th of September – the 29th of September 2022, Harmless will be hosting a live online webinar session (10:00-11:00 am) with an expert in the field of suicide bereavement. This unique CPD-accredited conference will be held online over 8 short sessions to allow you to join in flexibly at however many sessions you’d like.
The field of suicide bereavement is a particularly specialist area. When we start talking about suicide it can be surprising how many others have a story to tell. So many of us are impacted by suicide either through the tragic loss of a loved one, someone we once worked with, someone in our community, a patient, or someone very supportive. Everyone has a story.
We are hosting our third online Suicide Bereavement conference to examine the practical application of working in the field of suicide bereavement, split over 8 live webinars during the month of World Suicide Prevention Day.
The programme is designed to help those of us working with anyone impacted by suicide to improve our knowledge, skills and understanding in relation to suicide bereavement. Delegates can expect to take away from the conference a range of knowledge, inspiration and practical applications for the implementation in real-life personal and professional situations. Learning from some of the leaders in the field, delegates will have access to interactive sessions that can drive change in the field of suicide bereavement.
Please do contact me for any further information or if you have any questions.
