4 ground-breaking programmes

We have created 4 ground-breaking programmes, both in and out of the school system.

  • “There was a comfort in knowing that someone else has felt the same way you have. It was very validating for everyone's emotions.”

    - TY Workshop participant

  • “Excellent format for the workshop. Student led but facilitators were able to encourage the students to open up more. Some students spoke more in the workshop than they have done in school ever”.

    - Teacher

  • “As a movement SOAR bears witness to the fact of our human vulnerability and the need for acceptance, care and recognition on our various individual and sometimes shared roads to wellness”

    - Dr Maeve O’Brien Head of Human Development, DCU
