💜 WE ARE SO EXCITED TO SHARE THIS NEWS!!

From the very beginning of Violet Project in 2022, we had a vision…. Create a holistic Su***de Prevention and Bereavement Hub, bringing immediate crisis support, compassionate understanding, bereavement care and long-term recovery together under one roof.

That vision is finally becoming a reality!

💜 We are incredibly proud to announce the development of Coventry's first dedicated Su***de Prevention & Bereavement Hub, at the former Coundon Library on Moseley Avenue.

Through years of supporting people affected by su***de, we have learnt that su***de prevention cannot stop when the immediate crisis ends.

For someone in crisis, being asked to choose life forever can feel impossible. Sometimes we need to make that decision smaller:

Can we help you stay safe for now?

Then we have time to listen, develop a safety plan together, understand what has brought someone to crisis and help them begin to rebuild.

Our Hub will bring together:
💜 One-to-one su***de intervention and safety planning
💜 Peer programmes building resilience, coping skills and life skills
💜 Low-cost su***de and self-harm specific counselling
💜 Su***de bereavement groups, counselling and one-to-one support
💜 Wellbeing, recovery and community support.

🏠 The renovations are already underway, creating counselling rooms, private support spaces, group areas and a welcoming community space.

Our aim is to have a soft launch opening nearer Christmas.

*But to make this Hub everything our community needs it to be, we need you behind our registered Charity*

💜 Donate. Fundraise. Volunteer. Partner with us. Share our story.

We have the building. We have the experience and qualifications . We are growing the team (volunteers welcome). Now we need our community to help us build what comes next.

This Hub is for every person struggling, every family needing support, every family affected by su***de loss, and for every loved one we have lost.

When Violet Project began, this was the dream.Now we have the keys. 🔑💜

Help us turn them into a place of prevention, intervention, recovery, bereavement support and HOPE.

More details to come !
