Donate €2 euro and wear a Walk in Your Shoes badge to raise funds and awareness for this important campaign.Walk in My Shoes raises funds to provide mental health services to young vulnerable adults (18–25yrs) throughout Ireland who otherwise could not afford them. The main hospital is located in Dublin and accommodates people throughout the country. There are Dean Clinics ( community Clinics) throughout Ireland which provide free assessments.
St Patrick’s Hospital Foundation fundraises on behalf of St Patrick’s University Hospital, Ireland’s largest independent provider of mental health services. It is a not-for-profit organisation which uses the monies raised through the Foundation to provide facilities and services for the assessment, treatment and aftercare of people experiencing mental illness.
Adam Clayton is the Ambassador for this national campaign backed by a host of celebrities who are involved in activities happening throughout Ireland on 12th April.
