Today is #GivingTuesday! It's a global generosity movement, a day to celebrate all of the different ways you can give and make a difference. We'd love to encourage you to practice some generosity in the lead up to Christmas - why not host a Christmas jumper day or some other festive fundraiser at your work, school or community group, and have some fun whilst making a big difference for local people? 🎅💜 We at Action Mental Health love supporting our fundraisers with their events and activities - we can supply you with a range of lovely (purple) festive resources, including balloons, flags and buckets. Get in touch with us to find out more - shoot a wee email to fundraising@amh.org.uk, our friendly team would love to chat!

About us
Action Mental Health changes the lives of those living with mental ill health and promotes resilience and wellbeing throughout our community. Founded in 1963, Action Mental Health (AMH) is a local charity which works to enhance the quality of life and the employability of people with mental health needs in Northern Ireland. From humble beginnings in Downpatrick as ITO (the Industrial Training Organisation), AMH has grown to deliver services and projects across the country for all members of our communities. Our health promotion work takes place in schools, cross-border counties and with local employers. Our employment services assist people to remain in work as well as providing skills and sourcing opportunities for those who want to re-enter the workforce. We have specific projects for young people, older people, people living with alcohol abuse, employees, employers, people managing long-term conditions, partnership work with other mental health and disability charities as well as working within our prisons. We provide our clients with many opportunities, encouraging them to adopt healthier lifestyles and to widen their social networks. We also provide them with the skills to build a better future, set personal goals, develop coping skills, re-engage with society and become more employable.

November is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. We chatted with Ross, who you might recognise from our I am Someone campaign, about what the male experience of mental health can be like 🤔 Check out what he said in our latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/epa36NeZ

With our Festive Splash just 4 days away (not too late to sign up! https://lnkd.in/eCHjxRsU), we thought there was no better time to chat with someone who’s all-too-familiar with braving the cold water... Luke is approaching the end of an incredible cold water challenge. He's dipped every day this year, and has been raising money for Action Mental Health. We're so grateful to Luke for his incredible support - and are pretty amazed at his dedication! Read more about Luke's story in our latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/gAZZyvTN

Some of our Lisburn participants have been working on these beautiful pieces of art work - visual reminders of the positive impact of the services they've been part of at Action Mental Health. Aren't they amazing? 😍 This project has been run in collaboration with artist Robert Peters and supported by the National Lottery through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. By engaging in shared creative activities like acrylic painting, participants not only explore their artistic abilities but also promotes a sense of connection and community. #ACNISupported #NationalLottery #ThanksToYou
