Remembering loved ones
A person who dies by suicide is not defined by that death. They lived a unique life that touched all the people who loved and cared for them. The beautiful memorial pages on our site celebrate those lives – a place for families and friends to express their love and care through the images, words and video of lives shared.
The squares in this quilt, and the accompanying texts have been made by people, in dedication to loved ones lost to suicide.
Each square tells a story of a person, their interests and hobbies and their connection to their family and friends.

They are bright and colourful and full of meaning. Please take some time to read about the quilt squares and the people they represent.

Additional banners created in the community for World Suicide Prevention week can also be seen displayed and materials signposting to help are available.
