D12 CMHF Mental Health Survey

The Dublin 12 Community Mental Health Forum is conducting a voluntary survey during February and March with people who use our various services. 

The purpose of this survey is to look at what services are available to adults experiencing mental health difficulties in the Dublin 12 area, to get feedback on experiences of the current services, and to identify gaps in service provision.

We hope to have some results from this survey over the coming weeks.

Dublin 12 Mental Health Forum Laughter Lunch

The D12 Forum was officially launched on the 25th of November.  The turnout was fantastic and Father Kitt Court was the perfect venue for our Laughter lunch wellbeing and information event.
Esteemed speakers and guests, including Ms Orla Barry, CEO of Mental Health Ireland, and Mr John Moynes, comedian and person with his own mental health experience, supported the D12 Community Mental Health Forum to launch the Forum formally and to help raise awareness of this important new initiative in the Dublin 12 community.

Green Ribbon Event - Ashleaf Shopping Centre 14th May 2015

Members of the Dublin 12 Mental Health Forum joined forces to hand out Green Ribbons and start the conversation about mental health.

Emma from the Dublin 12 Taskforce and Rachael from ARc (Addiction Response Crumlin) joined Ronan, Mary, Noel and William from EVE Cherryfield on the day.

It seemed to be a great success, and the people of Dublin 12 responded well to our overtures!
