StandBy Support After Suicide is delivered in Western Australia by Anglicare WA, providing practical support for people, families and communities who have lost loved ones or friends to suicide. This service is free of charge and provided at a time and place that best suits those who request support. We also provide workshops and training to enhance community understanding and skills in supporting people bereaved by suicide.
The Perth Metropolitan StandBy service is delivered across the whole Perth metropolitan region, from Yanchep in the north across to Mundaring in the east and down to Pinjarra in the south.
The service benefits from Anglicare WA’s experience in delivering community services in Perth for over 40 years and its network of partnerships with local services and community groups built over this time. Anglicare WA is a leading not-for-profit organisation and provides around 80 different types of social service across Western Australia, supported by more than 600 staff and 200 volunteers.
