Our directors were involved in the Wolves In Wolves public art project a few years ago and designed and painted this sculpture for the trail.

It is called Support Life and is all about mental well-being and su***de prevention and was designed after several workshops with community groups and charities that support people at risk of mental health crisis.

It features both a jigsaw and 'Snakes & Ladders' design with each section containing a positive message or graphic, the 5 ways to well-being are picked out in bright orange sections.

Originally sited in Victoria Street in Wolverhampton town centre it is now located at University of Wolverhampton and often features in graduation photos.
It is dedicated to our friend, the talented musician Rich McMahon who sadly lost his battle with mental health in 2015.

Original photograph taken from University of Wolverhampton Instagram page, adapted in light of the theme.

PS, one of the jigsaw pieces is found on the base rather than the wolf itself - because 'It's OK to not fit in.'

This certificate has special meaning for me. I received it from the 2019 Mayor of Wolverhampton for contributing to the Su***de Prevention Strategy in Wolverhampton.

I designed and painted the 'Support Life' wolf for the Wolves in Wolves public art project in 2017 and my company RAW curated the Support Life art exhibition at the Lighthouse Media Centre on 2019.

This all has very personal meaning for me as I lost a dear friend to su***de in 2015.

Thankful and grateful
Alex

Support Life was held at The Lighthouse Wolverhampton in November 2019. The art project was concerned with raising awareness of su***de prevention and mental health issues particularly effecting Wolverhampton residents.

The Lighthouse has been a valuable resource for the local (and national) community for decades but unfortunately it closed down last week.
However, all hope is not lost as there is a petition to re-open it.
