HELP & SUPPORT
Shatter the Silence Campaign
We’re currently running a campaign, Shatter the Silence aimed at helping stop suicide in Perth and Kinross. As part of the campaign, resources have been developed which signposts to essential support for those experiencing suicidal thoughts, those concerned about someone and those needing support after a suicide. We would like to display these resources within our communities as follows:
Posters - on the reverse of toilet doors and on noticeboards
Suicide Leaflet and card – in accessible locations where people can discreetly pick them up.
We’re arranging these to be distributed within the NHS, hopefully chemists. It would be more around local village halls, smaller supermarkets, ie, co-op, premier stores, etc.
Can you please help to distribute these materials as above? If so, please let me know and where to send the resources.

Community-Led Guide to Local Services – Third Sector Interface
Service Navigator is an accessible and collaborative guide to the wide range of services available in Perth and Kinross.
As your Third Sector Interface, we understand it’s essential for you to have knowledge and evidence to be able to serve your communities.
Here to help is the Service Navigator, an interactive map of services provided by local charities, social enterprises and community groups.
The Service Navigator allows you to search for services by category and region, and you can learn more about each service by clicking its point on the map.
You can also add your organisation’s services to the map – find out how.
EVENTS & ACTIVITIES
Youth groups and projects mapping
Do you have opportunities for children and young people to get involved with in your area?
We are creating a Youth Groups and Projects Map for the Perth and Kinross Climate Action website. This will cover topics related to sustainable development, such as climate change, biodiversity, food, energy, waste, or health and wellbeing.
We will also use this information to encourage schools to undertake Eco-School and Learning for Sustainability projects by highlighting opportunities to get involved in their local communities.
Please take 5 minutes to complete our Youth Groups and Projects Survey to tell us about your group and any relevant projects. Alternatively, contact ClimateChange@pkc.gov.uk to discuss.
