Break the Cycle - Suicide Prevention Campaign - Ned Evans

Wednesday, 1 September 2021 - 5:00pm to 5:30pm

This week on Brainwaves we’ll be speaking with Ned ‘Noodle’ Evans about the Wellways campaign Break the Cycle. Break the cycle is a campaign created by Wellways to promote positive health and reduce the rate of suicide. Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged between 15 and 44 years of age and has a devastating impact on families, friends and communities. We talk to Ned about his recent ride around Murrumbidgee and about the amazing work they did for suicide prevention along the way. With world suicide prevention day coming up on September 10th and with lockdowns happening all over Ned and the team have planned some innovative ways for everyone to get involved so tune in to find out more!
