ZGBTST Meet S.T.E.P.S from Draperstown

ZGBTST Meet S.T.E.P.S from Draperstown.

Yasmin from ZGBTST travelled to Draperstown on Wednesday April 24 to meet the incredible team from S.T.E.P.S, a similar organisation to our own.

S.T.E.P.S were developed like ourselves, after the devastating loss of a loved one, and do a wonderful job in mental health awareness and suicide prevention across Mid Ulster.

Their main aims are breaking down of the stigma surrounding Suicide and Mental Health in a rural community, a coordinated approach to the prevention of Suicide and raising awareness of Suicide and Mental Health and building a community working together to raise awareness of Suicide and Mental Health.

 

STEPS Mental Health are now trained in level 1 safe talk, level 2 Suicide awareness, Mental Health First Aid, ASSIST and work in the community to promote skills in Suicide awareness and intervention.

There is nothing more refreshing than meeting like-minded and driven individuals who share your own passion and goals for the future of our communities.  We look forward to supporting, collaborating and meeting with S.T.E.P.S in the future.
