Green is the internationally recognised colour for Mental Health Awareness.  We invite everyone to wear something green - whether it’s a tie, shirt, dress, jumper, sports jersey, or any other item - to show support and stand together in raising awareness for mental health.

We’re rising up for youth mental health by raising funds for A Lust for Life–a charity that is working hard to give every child in Ireland the skills to look after their mental health from an early age. They’ve already empowered nearly half of primary school children – let’s help them reach the rest!

Please help us reach our goal by wearing anything green on Thursday, 9th October, and by making a donation on this page. Your support will enable A Lust for Life to provide vital mental health education to children across Ireland.

Pull on your brightest Christmas jumper and help raise vital funds for A Lust for Life, bringing free mental health education to children and young people across Ireland. Every jumper worn and every euro raised helps give the next generation the tools to understand their emotions, build resilience, and thrive.

Rise Up and Brave the Wave! This December, take the plunge for A Lust For Life! It’s cold, it’s bold, and it’s all for youth mental health! Brave the Wave is your chance to jump into Ireland’s icy waters and raise vital funds for A Lust for Life, the award-winning Irish charity providing free mental health education to thousands of children and young people across the country. Gather your friends, get your free fundraising pack, and make a splash that truly matters - because every dip helps equip the next generation with the tools to thrive.

I’m rising up for youth mental health by pushing myself beyond my comfort zone. I’m doing it because 1 in 5 primary school children in Ireland are already struggling with anxiety and other mental health challenges. 

A Lust for Life is working to change that by giving every young person the tools they need to look after their mental health, before a crisis hits. Your donation will help them reach more children, change more lives, and help provide early preventative mental health education for children across Ireland for free. 

So go on - be a legend and support me and A Lust for Life today!

Listen, we know December can feel like a mad rush. That’s why this year, we’re inviting you to take a breath, slow things down, and join us for 12 Days of Festive Wellbeing, running from 8th–19th December. It’s simple: for 12 days, you’ll take part in small, meaningful daily actions that support your own wellbeing- little things that make a big difference. And on the final day, you’ll join people across Ireland in coming together to fundraise for A Lust for Life, helping us continue our work supporting children’s mental health.
