Out of The Shadows 2022 - Lifeline Suicide Prevention
JF Hull Holdings Pty Ltd
A civil engineering contracting organisation specialising in the field of concrete construction.
Saturday 10 September 2022 was World Suicide Prevention Day and one of the Bielby Hull Joint Venture Civil Supervisors on our M1 WS2SD Project, Dominic Cockerton,?set himself a challenge to walk to support Lifeline’s “Out of The Shadows 2022” campaign.
Having lost a good mate to suicide 2 years ago, supporting Lifeline’s Suicide Prevention Services is something Dom strongly believes in and he asked his colleagues to support the cause.
He walked 10.5 kms through the project’s footprint area from Rochedale South to Daisy Hill and back to the project offices at Springwood.
Dom’s goal was to raise as much funding as possible to support Lifeline's services to save lives… Sadly, nine Australians are lost to suicide every day, which equates to 3000 family, friends and loved ones lost every year.
We stand behind and support him as we also believe more needs to be done to stop the loss of so many lives.
To launch Dom’s campaign, around 80 of his project colleagues were up at the crack of dawn on Friday to enjoy a big breakfast bash on site to raise some funds. The fundraising campaign really got going with a very generous donation from Karreman Quarries, and was topped off by Bielby Hull JV agreeing to match all donations. The result was an outstanding total of over $16,000 raised for a great cause.
Our congratulations to Dom for having the courage to make a difference, and to his mates on WS2SD for supporting him.
