Action Mental Health has joined the global campaign #GivingTuesday.

Giving Tuesday is a global day dedicated to giving back; taking place on Tuesday 1^st December 2015. The Tuesday after #BlackFriday & #CyberMonday we are asking individuals, families, businesses, community centers, and students to give something back.

You can simply make an online secure donation by clicking here or if you’re doing something sponsored you can create your own fundraising page through JustGiving.

Here are some fundraising ideas to get you started:

• Have a dress down in work or a Christmas Jumper day
• Organise a quiz night
• Wear fancy dress on the commute to work
• Ask you friends or family to guess how many jelly beans in a jar
• Start some healthy competition with a football match: HR vs PR
• Hold a coffee morning
• Organise a sponsored walk
• Nominate your teacher or boss to get their legs waxed
• Organise a spelling bee

We know funds can be tight at this time of year so why not simply raise awareness of mental health through social media.

Your generosity will help Action Mental Health to support the resilience and recovery of 1 in 4 people in Northern Ireland who are affected by mental ill health. We deeply appreciate your support!!

Don’t forget to let our Events & Fundraising Officer, Callum know what you are up [email protected] 02891828494 and if you’re doing any social media tag us @amhNI and use the hashtag #GivingTuesday
