FREE SUICIDE AWARENESS TRAINING FOR PEOPLE IN READING & BERKSHIRE
Would you know what to say if someone you care about told you they were thinking about suicide?
Would you know how to start that conversation?
On Thursday 24 September, 6:00pm–7:00pm, I’m hosting a FREE online Suicide Awareness Training session for local people in Reading and the surrounding areas.
The session will cover practical ways to:
• Recognise some of the warning signs that someone may be struggling
• Approach a conversation about suicide safely and sensitively
• Know what to say — and what not to say
• Understand how to respond when someone tells you they are struggling
• Encourage someone to seek appropriate professional support
• Look after yourself when supporting someone in distress
The training is completely FREE and will take place on Zoom.

I’m Cassim, founder of Male Minds Counselling, a private counselling practice based on Castle Street in Reading, opposite Sweeney Todd.
I specialise in counselling for boys and men, supporting clients with issues including anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, trauma, grief, relationships, low self-esteem, loneliness and emotional difficulties.
I work with clients across Reading, Tilehurst, Caversham, Woodley, Earley, Wokingham, Twyford, Theale, Burghfield, Thatcham, Newbury and the surrounding Berkshire areas, as well as offering online counselling.
Suicide can be a difficult subject to talk about, but sometimes having the confidence to ask "Are you thinking about suicide?" can be the beginning of getting someone the help they need.
You don't need to be a counsellor or mental health professional to attend.
If you live in Reading or the surrounding area and would like to learn more about suicide awareness, please email malemindscounselling@gmail.com and I'll send you the Zoom link.
