A Hollywood star has thrown his support behind a new online self-help resource launched to transform the landscape of mental health and wellbeing support in Northern Ireland.
In a short video, Ballymena-born Liam Neeson encourages those in Northern Ireland who need support with any aspect of their wellbeing – whether that be physical or mental – to take that first step by visiting FindHelpNi.com
At a time when waiting lists for services are so challenging, this vital service helps to ensure access to support within the community.
The website serves as a holistic support system for individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including abuse, addiction, bereavement, eating disorders, financial concerns, neurodiversity, parenting, and more.
She commented:
“It’s really important that people who need support with their mental health can find that support quickly and easily.
“Find Help NI is a great resource for people in Northern Ireland who are at any stages of their mental health journey, from early intervention to recovery.
“It provides helpful information about where to go for help and information about the mental health resources available to people here, in a clear, user-friendly way.”
