Suicide is a problem. A big problem. Many, many people have mental health challenges, and we want to help.
Borne out of tragedy, the idea of the Daffodil Walk in Merton, SW London and the Blue Bench is an innovative idea conceived by local people, for local people.
We want this to be a haven, a hub - a safe space for anyone who has been affected by mental illness.
On the blue bench is a QR code that can be scanned, and people can access our series of podcasts; Real stories from real people. There is a list of helpful resources and a weatherproof box underneath the bench containing useful leaflets to take away and keep.
We want you to know, that no matter what, there is hope. Sometimes in the most unexpected ways- I mean daffodils and a talking bench is not a bad start is it!
