Loughrea conference to heighten awareness of mental health issues

The HSE’s community mental health team in Loughrea/Athenry in association with Mental Health Ireland is organising a one day conference titled “Mental Health: The Challenges of Today”, on Friday May 22 at the Lough Rea Hotel in Loughrea.

The conference aims to create awareness of mental health issues and inform people of mental health services available. It also wants to address the stigma surrounding mental ill health by informing people of the help available locally and how modern successful treatments promote wellness and recovery.

One in four adults experience mental health problems which may include illnesses such as stress, anxiety, depression and psychotic disorder.

The conference is free and is of interest to people who wants to know more about mental health services in Galway. Anyone interested in attending should call Ruth at (091 ) 845634 or (091 ) 847003 to book a place.
