AWARE NI is delighted to announce its new partnership with Davidson McDonnell, a market-leading legal services firm based in Belfast.

The unfortunate reality is that most people will either suffer from some form of mental health illness during their lifetime or will know someone else close to them who has. It is therefore important to prioritise and protect our mental health – every day of the year – just like we would with physical symptoms and illnesses. Spotting the signs early and getting help are paramount to enable recovery and ongoing management of mental health illnesses.

Barbara Creed, Legal Director at Davidson McDonnell, said:

“Our workplaces are all impacted by mental health issues and, at Davidson McDonnell, we want to ensure that our staff and those in our communities get access to the help they need as and when they need it.

Our aim is to raise as much as possible during 2023 so our team and their families are keen to get involved in some exciting charity events this year ranging from coastal walks and viking boat racing to cold water swims.

We look forward to partnering with AWARE NI this year so watch out for members of our team at various charity events throughout 2023!”

Natasha MacKay, Corporate Partnership Officer at AWARE NI, added:

“We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Davidson McDonnell, which represents a significant step forward in our mission to raise awareness and promote understanding of mental health in Northern Ireland.

Through this collaboration, we aim to strengthen our efforts to support local people affected by depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder, whilst promoting positive mental health amongst Davidson McDonnell’s workforce”.
