Have you or someone you know been touched by suicide?

You are not alone, we all grieve differently.

The team at StandBy Darling Downs West Moreton understand, and are here to support anyone who has been bereaved or impacted by suicide at any stage of their life.

Support is provided with a focus on assisting you to navigate and understand what you are experiencing, providing connections and information to local ongoing support services and groups.

We can also provide professional development/information sessions, and workshops with the aim of strengthening the community, all free of charge.
