PAPYRUS - Prevention of Young Suicide is looking for volunteers to help raise awareness of young suicide, the biggest killer of under 35s in the UK.
We need volunteers in Carmarthenshire to raise awareness of suicide prevention in their community and to deliver awareness raising sessions for local groups. Volunteers will be fully trained to deliver sessions to improve awareness, knowledge and understanding of suicide for professionals and others who come into contact with under 35s.
There is a stigma around talking about suicide and we want our volunteers to help smash that stigma across Wales.
Each participant will be given a resources pack to distribute within their own community and will be guided in activities such as running events that will promote the work of PAPYRUS and suicide awareness. Hours are flexible and can fit around you, volunteering expenses will be reimbursed and full training and mentoring will be given by a dedicated Volunteer Co-ordinator. You must be over 18 years of age.
