Growing hope, connection, and change.

The Tasmanian Suicide Prevention Forum is a day for connection, learning, and collaboration. It brings together community members, people with lived experience, and professionals from across the state to strengthen our collective response to suicide prevention.

This year’s theme, From the Ground Up, celebrates how hope, connection, and support are cultivated locally and nurtured through small, meaningful actions in our towns, neighbourhoods, and families. It highlights the strength of grassroots initiatives and the lived experiences that shape sustainable, community-led approaches to suicide prevention.

By working together, Tasmanian communities can flourish, nurture hope, and create lasting change — all from the ground up.

The Village is a vibrant, community-focused space within the Forum where local organisations, services, and grassroots initiatives come together to showcase their work, share resources, and connect with attendees. While it functions as the traditional trade booth area, the Village is designed to be welcoming, inclusive, and highly interactive and colourful space.

Reflecting the Forum’s theme, “From the Ground Up”, local organisations and groups with trade tables are encouraged to bring this theme to life in their own way.

Examples of interactive elements include:

  • Hands-on activities that invite participation
  • Demonstrations of services or programs
  • Interactive displays that encourage conversation and engagement, rather than passive observation.

Keen to be part of the Village? We’d love to hear from you! Please register your interest by emailing us at tspcn@reltas.com.au

If you have any interactive elements in mind, please share them with us – all interactive activities will need approval to ensure a safe and supportive environment for everyone.
