It’s Suicide Awareness, this Wednesday on The BACK LOUNGE, this time with a more female orientated angle and the factors behind it’s worrying increase. All genders welcome, and however this issue affects you, if it’s your own story, someone close to you, or someone you’re worried about whom you work alongside. First half of the call will be recorded and practical, recognising possible warning signs, what you can do, and importantly, the impact of its aftermath. The second half, we stop recording and it’s a safe space to share and find support. Our guests are Eoghan O Hagan and Georgina Levers from Music Support, Beverly Evans therapist & coach at Music in Mind and Mig Burgess, LD, mental health advocate and trustee of Back Up Tech.

Next week on The BACK LOUNGE, our subject is ‘PDs’, that mysterious bonus payment with the amount varying widely across jobs, and whatever you get, no one wants to pay tax on. How much do you get? What is everyone else getting more? Why are they subject to their own nonsensical quirks, normally dictated by someone who has never toured and never in anyone’s favour? Ideas for how to make £20/20$ stretch across 3 meals and a day off in Oslo/ Tokyo/ NYC welcomed. Email info@thebacklounge.org to register for the zoom chat. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting ????
