Live4Life has won the 'Communities in Action' Award at the Victorian LiFE Awards on Tuesday 19 March. Hosted by Suicide Prevention Australia, the Victorian LiFE (Living is for Everyone) Awards held at the offices of Oliver Wyman in Collins Street, Melbourne, showcased the important work being done in Victoria by individuals and organisations to prevent suicide and support those in need.

The evening was led by Victorian State Committee Chair, Alison Asche, who presented the award to Live4Life CEO Bernard Galbally, alongside Suicide Prevention Australia Board Chair, Angela Emslie AO, and Board Member, Graeme Holdsworth. The 'Communities In Action' Award recognises the critical role that individuals and organisations in communities play in identifying and taking action in suicide prevention. It acknowledges that communities working together are at the heart of suicide prevention strategies.
