Driving Change for Mental Health with Desmond Motors
Thank You, Desmond Motors – Driving Change for Mental Health with AWARE NI
At AWARE NI, we know that meaningful partnerships can help power real change. That’s why we’re incredibly proud and grateful to be the chosen charity for Desmond Motors' participation in the Ford – Drive for Your Community campaign.
On Saturday 14 June, at Desmond Motor's L/Derry dealership, £30 will be donated to AWARE NI for every test drive taken at Desmond Motors – a generous initiative that will directly support our work across Northern Ireland.
Why It Matters
Mental health affects us all, and too often, people face challenges in silence. At AWARE NI, we’re dedicated to supporting those living with low mood, depression, anxiety, and bipolar through peer-led support groups, school programmes, and community well-being initiatives.
This support from Desmond Motors and everyone who takes part in the Drive for Your Community campaign will help us reach more people, reduce stigma, and deliver early intervention when it’s needed most.
Thank You, Desmond Motors
From all of us at AWARE NI, thank you to the team at Desmond Motors for standing with us and showing that businesses can be a force for good. Your ongoing support reflects a powerful commitment to the community and to mental health – and for that, we are truly grateful.

-
