SOS is delighted to be bringing a Supporters Programme Online for the community in two half-day sessions, starting on the 20th of May from 9:30am to 1:30pm and finishing on the 27th of May from 9:30am to 1:30pm.

SOS recognises and understands that supporting someone who may be struggling with their mental health can be challenging. For this reason, we have developed an innovative programme for people supporting family members, friends, neighbours, people in their community and others who may be struggling with their mental health. It is the first of its kind in Ireland.

The Supporters Programme will:

• Teach you practical skills you can use to support others
• Give you information on supports and how the system works
• Provide you with practical tips and tools you can use to look after your own mental health

Please note that this programme is for people supporting someone on a personal basis and not from a professional basis.

There is no cost to attend however we ask for a small, fully refundable booking fee which will be returned after the programme is finished.
