About the event
Hundreds of people in Yorkshire have contributed to the special memorial quilts.
Each unique quilt is an ongoing memorial and reminder of the person who has passed on.
The suicide memorial quilt is made up of unique hand crafted squares – each one lovingly created by someone bereaved by suicide. The bereavement memorial quilt is also made up of individual pieces to honour the life and legacy of a loved one.
As well as displaying these beautiful quilts, the roadshow venues listed below will host specialised workshops, speakers, trainers and mental health support will be available.
Anyone can come along to the roadshow venues to view the quilts or take part in the activities on offer.
Please click on the link under Further Information for more details.
