8.6 Australians die every day by suicide. More than double the road toll. Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians between the age of 15 and 44. But Rotarian Lester Pearson decided to do something about this founding SOKS, Save our Kids from Suicide. Hundreds of lives have now been saved. Lester explains how it started, how it works through sports organisations and the complementary focus on supporting Rotary programs for youth enrichment.www.soks.org.au
