Mental Health Charity Offering Targeted Supports For Migrants

It's aimed at helping with the challenges of living in Ireland.

A mental health charity is offering targeted supports for migrants.

Turn2Me is providing free online support groups to help with the challenges of living here.

They will take place every Monday in September at 6pm, so migrants can connect with others in a similar position.

Turn2Me CEO, Tullamore's Fiona O'Malley says people living in Direct Provision can also access the groups:

The charity has ensured participants can use a Google Translate page alongside the online support group, allowing them to engage fully regardless of their level of English.

Ms. O'Malley says: “We wanted to make sure that this service is truly accessible to all migrants, including those who may not be fluent in English.

By integrating Google Translate into the sessions, we’re ensuring that language is not a barrier to receiving support. We encourage anyone who feels isolated or overwhelmed to join these sessions.”

Migrants interested in participating in the support groups can sign up through the Turn2Me website here.
