Mental Health Awareness Week 2023

15th – 21th May

Each year for Mental Health Awareness Week, we aim to highlight the importance of looking after our mental health, and help to remove the stigma.

The week is vital to us for increasing public understanding of mental health on our Island, and of the essential support and services we provide for children and young people.

So please get involved!

Mental Health Awareness Week is an annual event hosted by the Mental Health Foundation.

This year’s theme is Anxiety.
