The group will be holding a suicide bereavement support group in Moruya on the first Tuesday of each month, beginning November 7.
The sessions will be held at 5.30pm, with the potential to offer a day session if there is significant interest.
Connelly Irwin said the support group may be the only one of its kind in the Shoalhaven, Eurobodalla and Bega regions.
“The closest group we are aware of is in Wollongong, and that is in the evening,” a Connelly Irwin spokeswoman said.
“This is a possibility for people who live out of the Eurobodalla.”
Refreshments will be provided. Anyone interested in attending is encouraged to call Betty Connelly on 0437728480 or Julie Irwin on 0437729703.
