Action Mental Health changes the lives of those living with mental ill health and promotes resilience and well-being to future generations.

About

Action Mental Health (AMH) actively promotes the mental health and well-being of people in Northern Ireland. Action Mental Health grew from humble beginnings in Downpatrick in 1963 when it was known as the Industrial Therapy Organisation. Back then it was tucked away out of sight, in tune with the stigmas of the day. Today however, AMH has emerged as the standard bearer within Northern Ireland’s Third Sector – helping to smash the stigma of mental illness for all sections of the community.

 

Action Mental Health is multi-faceted, offering myriad services. Integral to the organisation is its nine New Horizons services, dotted across Northern Ireland – north, south, east and west, where clients benefit from a variety of personal development, vocational skills and employability training options including accredited qualifications and work placements. AMH MensSana supports all ages through a range of emotional wellbeing and resilience building programmes offered in schools and community settings across NI. The charity also offers a whole gamut of services for young and old alike, designed to promote mental well-being for those in work and currently unemployed; those affected by chronic pain, eating disorders or debilitating long-term illnesses; people battling alcohol abuse and also a dedicated service in Bangor for people with learning disabilities
