PAPYRUS Champion/Awareness Raiser

PAPYRUS is working towards building suicide-safer communities across the UK. You can get involved as a volunteer to help us achieve this goal
You can:

Write blogs posts and get involved on social media about your lived experiences of suicide and mental health.
Deliver presentations to people in your community, such as schools, workplaces, and faith groups. These are 30-minute sessions called SP-ARK: Suicide Prevention – Awareness, Resource, Knowledge
Attend events and run stalls such as Pride, county fairs, wellbeing days, University freshers’ fairs, and fundraising events.
Help us to reach your communities by connecting us with groups and organisations you care about.
Share new ideas: we’re always open to new opportunities to make our communities suicide-safer.

Volunteers (aged 12-25) taking part in this opportunity are eligible to claim Saltire Awards hours for their activity.
