This is the second episode in season three of A World Where LivingWorks, a season focused on learning about the history and evolution of their groundbreaking suicide first aid training practices, now being taught around the world.
In episode one our host Kim Borrowdale talked with LivingWorks co founder Richard Ramsay about the early days, some 40 years ago. Make sure you have a listen to that episode if you missed it. We won’t give you too much of a spoiler but let’s just say that a film student and a road trip weren’t what we were expecting.
Today we’re continuing that chat having a look at how this new curriculum teaching people suicide first aid was put to the test in Canada and then further afield.
