Grow Mental Health is inviting Kilkenny communities to wear yellow and walk for 30 minutes on this year’s summer solstice - Wednesday, June 21 at 7pm in The Castle Park.

By supporting the YELLOWWALK for Mental Health, you’ll be helping achieve a vision of an Ireland where no one needs to navigate mental health challenges or life's struggles alone.

Or contact Grow Mental Health, Kilkenny Area Coordinator Liz Shortall

Grow is a community of people drawn together by first-hand experiences of mental health problems.

From a Grow member

Aisling’s story:

"Who knows where this heart will go, for some things are not yet known. This feeling of aliveness within myself is a deep compulsion to be shared. So, with the determination of a baby learning to walk I’ll try, try and try again. It’s not about how often we fall but how often we get back up."

From STORIES OF HOPE AND RECOVERY. Forward by Dr Pat Bracken.

There are weekly Grow Mental Health support meetings at 4 Dean Street in Kilkenny - for more details contact area coordinator Liz Shortall.
