A Salford suicide prevention charity is set to host a winter celebration to help people dealing with loneliness this winter.
A Winter celebration hosted by Jak’s World will take place on Monday 1 December at Salford Lads and Girls Club in Ordsall to provide support for Salfordians struggling with grief and experiencing painful memories around the festive season.
Everyone is welcome, with the hopes of bringing people together, making people laugh, sharing food and connecting with people from all walks of life in Salford.
Jak’s World Charity has said: “Come as you are, bring your smile, your story, or a small part of your culture to share. Together, we’ll make this festive season a little brighter.”
More than two years after his son Jakub Halani tragically passed away from suicide, Ronak Halani said that the event will offer “Food, laughter therapy and everyone is welcome.”
This is the first time that Jak’s World has put on an event so close to Christmas.
Halani added: “With the dark nights, bad weather and all the festivities around we want to bring the community together.
“We welcome any community members to bring their own food, as its an open event.
Jak’s World is a volunteer-based charity set up in the name of Jakub Halani, a talented musician who tragically passed away by suicide.
The group aim to promote mental wellbeing by running a variety of events in the city and and do accept donations. To help them fund similar events you can donate here.
