Living Links Providing assertive outreach support to the suicide
bereaved.
The first Living Links group was set up in Cloughjordan, Co. Tipperary
in May 2002, when a small group of local people got together in direct
response to a suicide in the community. The event was tragic and
cataclysmic for the people and there was a huge sense of inadequacy
on the ground as to how to provide appropriate community support
and a consequent sense of failure as a community.
