Lifeline have launched a new service on World Suicide Prevention Day.
Bean Talkin’ is a unique mobile coffee van concept, which will attend local events to raise awareness about the importance of good mental health and raise funds for Lifeline WA.
Staffed by volunteers, all profits from Bean Talkin’ sales will go directly towards supporting Lifeline WA’s vital services in suicide prevention, intervention and post-vention, thereby enabling Lifeline WA to save more lives from suicide.
Launching the new concept this morning, Fiona Kalaf, CEO of Lifeline WA was enthused about introducing a new way for people to learn more about the organisation.
“We are extremely excited to be launching Bean Talkin’ into the Western Australian market, with the generous help of iiNet and Dimattina Coffee. This mobile coffee van will provide an approachable and unique way for people to interact with Lifeline and learn about our services, whilst enjoying great quality coffee and appreciating the fact that their coffee money is going to a great cause,’”said Kalaf.
The Bean Talkin’ coffee van is at Bunnings in Cannington until 2pm today, and is available for community events and functions.
