Through 293 training workshops in 2024, 4,208 participants are now more suicide aware and equipped with life saving knowledge that they can take back into their communities and everyday lives thanks to Lifeline Training.
Corporate and Community Training
Lifeline’s Skills-for-Life training is designed to strengthen our capacity to support people within our communities and build suicide aware and safe communities by providing courses for business and community members in suicide prevention.
The highly accredited and well-known Lifeline training covers a highly complementary range of mental health courses including being skilled to acutely and astutely listen to someone, the ability to recognise domestic violence, a mental health condition or risk of suicide. As well as the ability to be mindful of self-care. There is a reason the Lifeline training is dubbed Skills-For-Life.
Mental health and suicide awareness in both the community and workplace is paramount to working towards an Australia free of suicide.
Through both its Centres and online, Lifeline Direct (LLD) delivers a range of workshops to upskill individuals to better support themselves or someone they know who may be experiencing suicidal thoughts or mental health distress.
