On Friday we all to wear our own clothes and funky shoes to help spread mental health awareness and to donate money collected from each student from wearing in their own clothes and shoes to the Walk In My Shoes Foundation. The Walk In My Shoes Foundation is here to help young adults who experience mental difficulty.
Statistics say that:
- 1 in 4 young people in Ireland will experience a mental health difficulty.
- Suicide is the leading cause of death among 18-25 year old men in Ireland and the second most common cause of death generally in this age group.
- Ireland has one of the highest suicide rates in the 14-24 age group in the EU.
- 1 in 6 employees in Ireland will experience a mental health difficulty.
