Unplug24
Join us in going off social media for a day on 24 October.
This Saturday, on 24 October, we are joining Unplug24, a 24-hour break from social media in solidarity with SmackTalk – an organisation founded by local Wayne Holdsworth to honour his son, Mac, and raise awareness around suicide prevention.
Unplug24 encourages us to step away from social media and reconnect offline to:
🔌 Protect mental health
🔌 Raise awareness to prevent suicide
🔌 Support vital education and awareness programs
Let’s join together and unplug from all social media for the day – at work and at home – to show our support for this important cause.
Register to via the link in our bio.
