Light Up for Hope on World Mental Health Day

Come help us create 281 lanterns - one for each of the suicide deaths registered in West Yorkshire in 2021 - to show your support for suicide prevention, remember those lost, and stand in solidarity with survivors of suicide.

This will be an informal event with opportunities to connect with others - however, there is no pressure to speak to others unless you want to. Members of the Healthy Minds team, including Safespace, will also be available to chat.

Tuesday, October 10th 2023

5:30 - 7:00 pm - Lantern-making drop-in
7:00 - 7:30 pm - Words from Chief Officer, Jonny Richardson-Glenn followed by official lighting and time for reflection
