Lived experience of suicide advocate brunch + networking: Canberra

Playing Fields Cafe 33 Allara Street #2 Canberra, ACT 2601 33 Allara Street, Canberra, Australia

Do you do your lived experience of suicide work online or with geographically spread teams? Do you know anyone in Canberra who is doing work like you? The nature of the way we work these days, can mean you rarely get the opportunity to meet with people face to face to chat about all things lived experience, or build a local network of people to understand the work you do. If you have a lived experience of suicide or mental health difficulties, and use your lived experience purposefully in any sector, you are invited to come to an informal public meet up to make some local connections with others doing similar work. Purchase your own food, coffee or other drinks and just have a chat. This is a very informal meet up. Please RSVP if you plan on attending so that space may be booked at the café. If you have any accessibility needs, please reach out to: contact@criticle.com.au
