FM104’s Mind Your Noggin Day is taking place this Friday, 10 September, in aid of our work.
This year, there is another great line-up of acts and talent to remind the FM104 audience of the important work we do.
Presenters will be joined by Ella Henderson, The Script, The Wanted, Tom Grennan, Bressie and Joel Corry, among others. Social media stars will lend their support too.
Despite the challenges last year brought, because of you we were able to offer mental health support to thousands of young people across Ireland.
We could give families, teachers, and those who support young people the skills to be there for young people.
We are delighted to announce registration is now open for our upcoming Jigsaw Exchange research event on Wednesday, 29 September, from 9.30am-12.30pm.
To sign up for this event and find out more, visit our registration page.
Join a youth mental health revolution by taking part in our cycling challenge, Revolution x Jigsaw.
We’re asking you to get on your bike and cycle 100km in September to raise funds for youth mental health services across Ireland. You could also create your own cycling challenge to raise funds for us too.
Wherever you are, whatever age you are, whether you are a cycling pro or just taking off your stabilisers, join the Revolution at revolutionxjigsaw.ie. Help Jigsaw continue to support our young people’s mental health.
On Saturday 24 July, Jigsaw, the youth mental health charity, is hosting an exciting 24-hour live stream gaming marathon to raise money to support young people’s mental health.
Raise Your Game will involve lots of gaming fun and challenges, as well as some surprise special guests.
The pandemic has been a particularly tough time for young people. For many, gaming has been a great escape to ease their daily stresses and anxieties. Previous research by Jigsaw has found that almost a quarter of young people use gaming as a way to relieve anxieties.
Mike Edgar, Jigsaw’s Youth Advocate for Kerry tells us how gaming affects his life here.
Restrictions are easing, after what feels like a very long time and we are being encouraged to have an outdoor summer. This sounds great in theory, but is not without its drawbacks.
Damien Coyle, Service Manager for Jigsaw Donegal, is taking on the C.L.A.N.G. challenge to raise funds and awareness for youth mental health.
Over the 6-10 July, Damien is doing C.L.A.N.G. with Jigsaw. He will Connect, Learn, get Active, take Notice and Give, the 5 a day for his mental health, while running 252 KM. That’s 6 marathons in 5 days!
Starting off in Jigsaw Galway, Damien will run past Jigsaw Offaly, Jigsaw Dublin city, to finish in Jigsaw Bray. But, Damien wants to visit all 14 Jigsaw services, and that’s a 1,200 KM round trip. So just like our mental health sometimes, he can’t go it alone.
We need your help…
Jigsaw’s One Good Manager is an initiative which supports the mental health of young people in the workplace.
We know from the My World Survey 2 that young people benefit greatly from having someone to be able to talk to. Having this person in their lives was linked to better overall mental health.
