Move with Balmain & Co
Research shows that around 190 Australians take their own lives each year in the construction industry alone. On a national scale and across all industries and communities it is estimated that 8 people die by suicide each day. Pretty confronting right?
At Balmain & Co we do our best to look out for one another. We encourage our team to check in with each other regularly and do what we can to raise awareness and support our great industry.
For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt suicide.
89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.
We want to contribute to changing 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 who are struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about suicide.
Thank you so much for your support, together we will make a difference.
