I am someone

One in five adults in Northern Ireland will show signs of mental ill-health. One in eight children will face emotional difficulties.

But behind every statistic is someone with an important story.

Together, we can change the mental health narrative. Donate today to help someone access life-changing mental health support.

Action Mental Health’s I AM SOMEONE campaign reminds us of the likelihood that we all know someone who has faced or will face mental health challenges in their lifetime – it could be your friend, your family member, your neighbour or even yourself.


But the voices and stories of Vicky, Ross, Kapeela, Deirdre and Anthony, each of whom have found help and support from Action Mental Health, make clear that recovery is possible.

Action Mental Health is a leading charity transforming lives and promoting mental wellbeing across Northern Ireland. With your help, we can reach even more individuals and communities with our vital mental health services.

£10 could help pay for arts and crafts materials for a child’s play therapy session.

£30 could help pay for educational resources for local school children learning to look after their mental health.

£50 could help pay for a counselling session for a local person who is struggling to cope.

Give today and make a transformational difference for someone.
