Grief and Suicide Bereavement Support Group Offers a Safe Space in Potch - 14 May

Community grief can be a lonely road, especially when someone has lost a loved one to suicide. But a free support group meeting in Potch is offering adults a chance to navigate the difficult terrain of bereavement together, without the awkward silence.

The Details – No RSVP Required

The support group gathers at 5 Esselen Street at the Pregnancy Care Centre, from 17:30 to 18:30 on Wednesday, 14 May. The session is open to anyone over the age of 18 who’s been affected by suicide and needs a space to talk, breathe, or just be around others who get it.

There’s no cost involved – this is one of those rare things that’s genuinely free and useful.

More Support, Less Small Talk

There’s no pressure to share if you’re not ready. Sometimes just sitting in a room full of people who get it is enough. And if this sounds like something you or someone you know needs, don’t overthink it, just show up.

Because honestly, we’ve all had enough of pretending everything’s fine when it’s really, really not.
