Suicide is claiming the lives of at least 800 people each year on the island of Ireland.These people include fathers and mothers, wives and husbands, sons and daughters, sisters and brothers, best friends and colleagues.

Cycle Against Suicide is a voluntary organisation that aims to:

* Raise Awareness among 6,000,000 people on the island of Ireland that 'it's ok not to feel ok; and that it's absolutely ok to ask for help'

* To ensure that the behaviour of those impacted is one of help seeking when needed for their mental wellbeing

Cycle Against Suicide was founded by Irish entrepreneur, Jim Breen. A visit to a Suicide Awareness group in Dublin 15 as part of an appearance on RTÉ'S documentary, The Secret Millionaire, and the subsequent impact of the programme, inspired Jim to continue to use his skills and influences to help raise awareness of the issue in Ireland and signpost people in need, to the considerable supports available for suicide prevention in Ireland.

We believe in a community-driven approach in all our activities which promotes sustainability. We understand that this is a complex fight and we remain positive and optimistic that a multi-level approach based on the promotion of help-seeking behaviour can result in a reduction in the number of suicides on the island of Ireland.

Together, shoulder to shoulder, we can break the cycle of suicide on the island Ireland. www.cycleagainstsuicide.com www.facebook.com/CycleAgainstSuicide

Homestays Newsletter

On 2nd May 2015 Cycle Against Suicide is coming to Limerick and we would like your help in accommodating cyclists for the night.

Cycle Against Suicide's core message that 'It's OK not to feel OK, and it's absolutely OK to ask for help.'

This year's Cycle is expected to attract up to 7,000 participants, each standing, shoulder to shoulder, to break the cycle of suicide on the island of Ireland.

The Cycle takes places over two weeks and many cyclists do 1400km around the entire island of Ireland raising awareness about the help that's available & encouraging people to talk.

The Homestays Programme sees homeowners all over Ireland provide a warm meal, a chance to freshen up and a bed to cyclists that are passing through their town. Feedback from last year's Cycle has shown that the experience proves to be just as rewarding for the hosts as it is the guests.

If you would like to host one or more cyclists as part of this year's Cycle Against Suicide, please contact Martin /Brendan by email [email protected] , [email protected] or by phone 087-4484278

You can also find out more about this event by logging on to www.cycleagainstsuicide.com or find us on Facebook.com/CycleAgainstSuicide.

Together, shoulder to shoulder, we can break the cycle of suicide on the island of Ireland.
