World Suicide Prevention Day Event
September 10th marks World Suicide Prevention Day and BYT are organising a special event at the Youth Activity Centre in Byron Bay thanks to some funding from North Rivers Community Foundation (NRCF)
The afternoon will see us presenting a short video of our Here Today Forum Theatre production which toured local high schools in June this year followed by a community forum with guests speakers discussing how best to support and protect our young people.
Please come join us in raising awareness, sharing strategies and building great community safety nets.
Cakes and refreshments will be on sale as a small fundraiser for BYS who we want to thank for supporting this event
The Brain comes out again!
The Brain was created as a workshop resource for Byron Youth Services Project U-Turn and Cringe the Binge projects back in 2010 when Byron Youth Theatre created Angie’s Story and Calling The Shots.
It then found a new lease of life going to the Blues Festival! Each year since The Brain has given BYT members the opportunity to go to the Blues accompanied by Lisa and the wonderful Mandy Morris, another local performer. Although many people think the Brain is a giant Easter egg, Lisa and BYT members spread the word on having a great time without getting messy by consuming less alcohol, drinking plenty of water, eating yummy festival food and looking after each other.
Lisa and BYT wish to express their gratitude to Byron Youth Service and Festival organisers, especially Shelley for making it possible!!
