A Hear For You Trust

#Hear4U is a registered charitable trust, CC59854, based in Gisborne, Tairawhiti: We are dedicated to helping our community break the stigma around Men's Mental Health Awareness and Suicide Prevention by providing healing pathways, sharing lived experiences and connections. Our aim is to reduce male suicide statistics within our region, "one bloke at a time".

How: We provide a much – needed advocacy service, and head office in Gisborne, which enables our team to connect and assist men, and whanau struggling with mental health challenges, or those that have been impacted by male suicide. To date, these much-needed service has been funded by our community in Tairawhiti. Principally this has been fundraising efforts that are on a hand to mouth basis. This is the biggest constraint faced by Hear4u and caps delivery of what can be funded. Demand exists for greater levels of funding to enable more lives to be saved.
