The aim of this programme is to promote community awareness around mental health issues and to open up discussion and inform people about supports.

We live in a time when a lot of people are experiencing difficulties, financial, emotional, physical and psychological. We hope that this four week programme will provide information around how to mind your mental health in challenging times and direct people towards the supports that are available.
