To mark the launch of the final series of AFTER LIFE, Netflix has donated 25 benches to local councils around the UK at points of interest to create a space for communities to visit. The benches have been commissioned alongside suicide prevention charity Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) – who offer help, advice and information to anyone who is struggling or in crisis.
One of these benches have now installed within our project at Sydney Gardens with Bath & North East Somerset Council, adjacent to the park entrance of the Holburne Museum.
We hope that this bench will help to start conversations about mental health, grief, suicide, provide a help line for support, act as a reminder that everyone can experience these feelings and that hope is everything.
