This International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day Saturday, November 22, 2025 StandBy invites you to S.H.A.R.E with us as we come together to Support, Honour, Acknowledge, Remember, Empower our stories and voices.

International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day is an important annual awareness day to bring together those who have been bereaved by suicide to connect and share their experiences and insights, find comfort and care, and reduce stigma by normalising conversations around suicide loss.

StandBy’s Lived Experience Team: Jo, Kristy, Tilly and Hope, have developed this important initiative to be inclusive and meaningful, to encourage people to share in a way that feels right.

Please register by Wednesday 12th November 2025 to ensure you receive your participation pack in time for International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day on 22nd November 2025.

This November, we invite you to walk 3.2km to show your support for those bereaved by suicide and to honour the lives lost. Whether you choose to walk a little each day, complete the full 3.2km on November 22, share the distance with friends, or connect over a cuppa and conversation, we hope that you find a way to share whenever, wherever and however feels right to you.
