Jigsaw Meath

This week we celebrate ‘National Volunteering Week’. Jigsaw Meath is incredibly proud of all the volunteers, past and present here in the county and right across the country.

The theme of this year’s National Volunteering Week is “From Every Corner, For Every Cause” -celebrating the extraordinary collective power of volunteering — local and global — and honouring the people whose time, compassion and commitment make a measurable difference every single day.

Thank you to each and every one of our Youth Advocate Volunteers who help us to make a difference for the cause we care most about – young people’s mental health.

Happy ‘National Volunteering Week’. #

Well done to all of the Youthreach centres across the country who have already completed activities as part of Jigsaw’s ‘Do One Thing’ campaign.
 

‘Do One Thing’ is a mental health promotion campaign aimed at promoting young people’s mental health through participation in themed activities that are simple, engaging and evidence- informed. Participation is supported with the ‘Do One Thing’ guidance booklet, available from Jigsaw.

With the campaign running for the entire month of May, it’s still not too late to participate. Youthreach centres can take part over one day, one week or throughout the month or at a time that suits your 2026/27 curriculum.

We’re delighted to help promote this wonderful opportunity for parents and caregivers — a two-day EFST Parents Workshop taking place in Navan this May, kindly funded by CRANN and CYPSC.

A heartfelt thank you 💛 to Jacinta Casey, her family, friends, and the wider community for organising and supporting a phenomenally successful Easter Cake Sale. Jigsaw Meath would like to extend our sincere thanks.

An amazing €3,880 was raised, with proceeds shared between Jigsaw Meath and Nobber Community First Responders, another very worthy cause. Jacinta, you are truly a powerhouse! Your dedication to helping others is genuinely appreciated by all those around you.

To everyone who baked, bought, donated, and supported – thank you. Your kindness and generosity mean so much 💫

Big news 💛

Jigsaw Meath Youth Advocates are excited to launch a campaign they created — all about making sure you know: You Are Not Alone.

Most people know Jigsaw provides, free early intervention talk therapy for young people aged 12–25… but here’s what often gets missed 👇
👉 Support is absolutely here for 18–25 year olds too.

Too many young adults don’t realise they can reach out, talk things through, and get support when they need it. That’s what this campaign is here to change.

Created by passionate youth volunteers who want to make a real difference, this is about making sure no one feels left without support.

Call To Action: If you’re 18–25 — or know someone who is — help us spread the word. We will share one new poster every month for the next 6 months, Please share, re post, or send it to a friend 💬

Because the more people who know, the more people can get support when they need it.
