KindSpire Support - R U OK? NDIS Community Connection Event

KindSpire Support is fundraising for a great cause!

KindSpire Support, together with our amazing co-hosts Beyond Fun, ACN, APM Futures, DESSA, Surgical House, and Plan Partners, has decided to fundraise for R U OK? to help spread their message, help prevent suicide, and promote mental health awareness especially within the disability community.

About 8 people take their own lives in Australia every day.
For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt suicide.
89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.

People living with disability often face additional challenges such as social isolation, discrimination, and barriers to accessing supports, all of which can increase the risk of mental ill health. We want to help change these numbers.

R U OK?’s vision is of a world where we are all connected and protected from suicide.
Their mission is to inspire everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and support anyone struggling with life.

By inspiring people to take the time to ask, “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people including those with disability feel connected long before they even think about suicide.

Thank you so much for your support. Together, we can make a difference.
