KINDERSLEY - The Better Together group held an awareness day on Saturday, August 14 at the Kindersley Spray Park.
The day began with participants visiting local businesses and handing out information packets, followed by time spent at the spray park where Better Together volunteers operated a bouncy castle for the kids and sold hamburgers, hot dogs, drinks, Better Together cookies, popsicles, and raffle tickets for a chance to win a Better Together t-shirt.
Better Together facilitates mental health awareness and provides a positive incentive for well being, understanding, decreased loneliness and enhanced social interaction in our community.
Proceeds from Saturday’s barbecue and raffle are going towards an upcoming community “Better Together” mental health/suicide prevention workshop.
