The
RSAG are presently involved in a number of initiatives on suicide
prevention and bereavement councelling. We are networking with
other organisations to identify a full range of effective services
presently available in Limerick. We will provide a full list of
these services in the very near future.
One of the groups we are
in contact with, is organised by Betty Baker of the Pastoral
Centre, Denmark, St. Limerick.
The Pastoral Centre, organises, co-ordinates and implements a
“Suicide Healing Programme” under the auspices of the
Mid-Western Health Board. The aim of this programme is to help
those who have experienced a death by suicide to find healing and
support in a safe and caring environment and to provide an
opportunity for individuals to meet others who have had a similar
experience.
A
suicide support group currently meets at the pastoral centre on
the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month at
8pm.
The centre also puts people in touch with counselling services.
To
find out more about this service phone The Pastoral Centre at 061

The
National Suicide
Bereavement Support Network website has information on reading
material and has details of professional groups throughout the 4
provinces.
