This film highlights the impact the Together For You project has made.
In October 2013 Big Lottery Fund funded Together For You – an innovative partnership of nine leading mental health charities to promote positive mental health in Northern Ireland.
The partnership delivered mental health and well-being services to people across Northern Ireland. Through a range of services they helped young and old, men and women, minority groups and marginalised groups such as prisoners.
The Together For You partners are: Action Mental Health (lead), Aware, CAUSE, Cruse, Mindwise, Nexus NI, Praxis Care, Relate NI and the Rainbow Project.
Like Geraldine I lost my partner and through CRUSE found help and friendship. I learned to cope with my bereavement and look to my life in a positive way. I think all the groups in the Together For You Partnership do do such wonderful work in the community. They deserve the highest praise for what they do and also the Big Lottery Fund, without their support many of these groups would struggle to provide the vital service that helps so many people.
Hi John, thanks for sharing your thoughts. It’s great to hear that so many people have found support and friendship through the project.
