World Suicide Prevention Day is observed on 10 September every year to raise awareness about the impact of suicide and suicidal behaviour, and to encourage everyone to make a commitment to doing what they can to prevent suicide.
Here’s what’s going on in the very busy Third Sector across the CTM footprint today for Suicide Prevention Day.

Suicide and the need to prevent it, is EVERYONE’S business.
Stay safe and know there’s always someone there to care.
The consultation period ends today at 23.59.
We would like to thank those who have already taken the time to attend one of our events and sent through feedback – we appreciate receiving the feedback from the local community and interested stakeholders which will help us to shape our proposals further before the next stage of statutory consultation.
There is still an opportunity to respond to the proposals – our revised proposals offer a split site approach, which means there is separate feedback form for each proposal:
Details of the proposals and online feedback forms can be accessed online via our virtual consultation room: www.dwrcymru.com/cwmtafstrategy
Our Welsh Water van will also be outside Pontsticill Water Treatment Works on Monday 9th September between 10.30-12.30 if anyone would like to speak to us about the proposals or drop in feedback forms.
If you have any queries about the proposals, please feel free to contact us on cwmtafproject@dwrcymru.com
This is a reminder that Annual General Meeting of VAMT will be held on 26th September, 11am at Merthyr Tydfil Football Club.
