Thank you so much for delivering such a very professional seminar/presentation in such a sensitive manner. You made 'clever comedy' into compassionate humour for the soul :) It was an amazing experience to sit in another role and to appreciate the integration of your newly acquired academic knowledge in suicide prevention with your 'other passion' for comedy and laughter. Entertainment has just been taken to another level in the field of suicidology.

Running a national health and community focused conference we engaged Mark McConville to present our closing plenary session, and he certainly delivered on our brief. He successfully balanced comedy, audience engagement and facts to highlight the positive impacts humour can have on mental health. Mark brought a wealth of professionalism, knowledge, personal stories and supporting research to the session and his preparation ensured he spoke to the needs of our audience, while showcasing our conference theme. We would highly recommend Mark and his ‘Laughter Clinic’ to anyone wanting to raise awareness of mental health and Suicidology, gain practical tips and strategies to increase laughter in their lives and in the lives of family, friends and colleagues , all while having some fun along the way.
