The birth of "A Seat at the Table"

Over the past 12 months, across 6 venues locally, we've been building something pretty special in the area.

It's a suicide prevention initiative we call GLASS EMPTY & The Whisperer Team.

A signal, education, community connection and people willing to show up for each other.

It's a movement bridging the gap between someone in distress and a caring local.

Why? Because suicide rates continue climbing globally and we believe compassion can literally save lives.

This Tuesday night our team, "The Aldinga Whisperer Team", is doing something new. We'll be at the Aldinga Hotel's front bar, from 6.30pm, for anyone who needs a conversation around their distress or just wants to catch up for some connection.

Just look out for the guy in the Akubra hat. Then come and say g'day.

It's something we're calling "A Seat at the Table".

Because nobody should have to sit alone.

If you're in distress, you can present a GLASS EMPTY Signal coaster to have a confidential conversation around what you're experiencing.

If you're feeling alone, and in need of some company, you can join us as well, and beat some of these winter blues with a beverage and/or meal and a chat

GLASS EMPTY & The Whisperer Team isn't just another suicide prevention program. It's a people-centric movement powered by the inherent goodness in us all.

If you're someone who naturally extends kindness to others, we want you as part of our team.
