Pete's Dragons supports those impacted by suicide.
Call us crazy, we'll admit, we're a little off our rocker with passion for making sure those that are experiencing suicide loss are supported. That's just what happens when you get a team of people that have experienced the aftermath first-hand working together towards making sure that those bereaved by suicide have access to timely and appropriate support.
We are honest, brave, vibrant and a little bit sweary... so we will come straight out and say it - losing someone to suicide is just so totally devastating and exhaustingly shit. We know, we've been there. We know that as families, partners and friends adapt to the world without their loved one, in the early days we might be initially able to help in a number of small yet meaningful ways, such as: practical advice, listening services, comforting hampers, financial assistance, holistic therapies, wellbeing workshops and family fun days.
We also know that psychological and therapeutic support must be timely, appropriate and carried out by professionals and we work hard to ensure we have a range of quality therapists and specialists within our team.
As much as Pete’s Dragons LOVE giving our support to families – it would be so much nicer if suicide rates were zero, wouldn't it?
We want to offer preventative services also and as such, we provide ASIST, SafeTALK and SuicideTALK training. Dates of our courses can be found on the associated pages.
