2025 National LiFE Awards
For 22 years, we have been recognising excellence in suicide prevention with the Suicide Prevention Australia LiFE Awards – Living is For Everyone.
The LiFE Awards aim to showcase the important work being done in states and territories across Australia by individuals and organisations to prevent suicide and support those in need.
The State LiFE Awards are held in March. There are five categories that recognise the diverse and innovative efforts being undertaken to save lives and reduce suicide. These categories acknowledge individuals and organisations at a state and territory level, with all award recipients automatically proceeding to the National LiFE Awards here in Perth.
LiFE Award Categories:
- Communities in Action
- Outstanding Contribution
- Priority Populations
- Innovative Practice and Research
- Best Practice in Workplace
Nominations are received from across Australia and, every year, we are deeply moved by the high quality of submissions. Suicide Prevention Australia is committed to shining a light on the dedication and passion exhibited by so many who work tirelessly towards our shared vision of a world without suicide.
