Hosted by trivia master extraordinaire Adam Straney, the event is being held on Friday, April 6 at the Bomaderry Bowling Club.
In its eighth year, the evening is a fun way to bring people together and raise funds for suicide prevention work in the Shoalhaven.
Shoalhaven Suicide Prevention and Awareness Network chair Bruce Murphy is excited to see the event coming together.
“The annual SSPAN Trivia Night is a fantastic way for people to show their support for suicide prevention work in our region,” Mr Murphy said.
“Suicide is a significant concern for the Shoalhaven community. But we can all help to turn that around - ask your friends and family if they are ok; know what to do if they say no; and complete some suicide first aid training to help recognise the signs of suicide.
“Everyone can play a part in reducing suicide in the Shoalhaven. And the SSPAN trivia night is a very easy way to do exactly that.”
SSPAN is a network of representatives from the Shoalhaven community, government and non-government organisations.
They work closely with the community to raise awareness of suicide; promote recovery from mental illness; and build individual and community resilience; with the aim of reducing the impact of suicide in the Shoalhaven.
Tickets for the trivia night are just $15 for adults ($2 for children 4-12) and are available from Aquatique Junction Street, Nowra, the Bomaderry Bowling Club and via the SSPAN website at www.sspan.org.au.
So why not get your mates together, buy a table of 10 tickets and join in the fun!
Some great prizes are available on the night.
All proceeds will go towards SSPAN suicide prevention strategies in the Shoalhaven region.
If you need support, remember Lifeline is available 24/7 on 13 11 14.
