Held annually in Albury on 21 June, Winter Solstice brings community together in commemoration of those who have died by suicide.
On the longest night of the year, Survivors of Suicide & Friends hosts this free community event featuring exceptional speakers and heart-warming performances. It’s a night to remember, reflect, and to cherish those we love in our lives.
The Grit and Resilience Program is arranging a free bus service for Rural City of Wangaratta residents who would like to attend the event and share in the experience with others whose lives have been touched by suicide. The bus is also available for those supporting friends and loved ones.
The Grit and Resilience Program have supported the Winter Solstice since 2020 when they partnered with the Wangaratta Youth Council to develop an edited excerpt of the documentary “Solstice”.
“There can be a profound silence in grieving the loss of a loved one, particularly with the stigma that still exists around suicide,” said Bek Nash-Webster, Grit and Resilience Program Coordinator.
“The Winter Solstice brings people together to make connection and unite through shared experience, it provides a safe and inclusive space for people to share their stories.”
The bus will pick up and drop off at Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre. Full details and tickets can be accessed below Register Now
