Jigsaw Tallaght to host mental health workshops this month

PARENTS, guardians and other adults interested or concerned about young people’s mental health are invited to attend two free workshops in Tallaght this month.

Offered by Jigsaw Tallaght, two 60-minute workshops will be held in Tallaght on March 29, one in An Cosan, Jobstown, at 10.30am and a second in the Brookfield Youth and Community Centre later that day at 6.30pm.

Participants will gain an understanding of the key issues impacting on mental health and wellbeing of young people, learn to promote positive mental health in young people and understand how to recognise some of the signs that a person may be struggling with their mental health.

They will also learn the “value of listening” and increase their knowledge of the supports available in their area.

Limited places are available on each free workshop and booking is essential.

To book a place call Jigsaw Tallaght on 4649350 or email tallaghtworkshops@jigsaw.ie
