Free peer support for mental health/ running group for adults in Dublin

rtrdublin

Hi,

I'm in the process of setting up a mental health peer support group for adults that goes for a relaxed paced run in Dublin on a regular basis. This group is being set up for people who feel that their mental health isn't 100% where they'd like it to be.

The main point of the group is having a community of people who can support each other in a non-judgemental environment. There would be no pressure to talk about your mental health but the idea is that the option would be there if and when you feel you would like to. 

Am expecting the group will meet up in the Phoenix Park each week (more details to follow re times/location etc. in due course). This is all the information I have for now so please bear with me as it may take a little while to get the group up and running. If you would like to keep updated about this group (and find out more about it) please feel free to follow on Instagram, Just search instagram for:

If you know someone else who may be interested please feel free to share the above Instagram details with them.

Thanks,

Sean

Very good idea. Would the group also help people to change diet to improve mental health?

Thanks Mark,

It's mainly a group set up to give people a space where they can connect with others and discuss mental health matters if and when they feel comfortable to do so. Theres no diet plans etc... it's really up to the people in the group what's discussed (but you could certainly discuss this with others if you took part)
