Ricky Tomlinson to support youth mental health at Dublin gig

TV and film legend, Ricky Tomlinson, will run a collection for Jigsaw at his upcoming Dublin gig.

The star of the Royal Family, who recently performed on the Late Late Show, is supporting Jigsaw because of his passion to support youth mental health.

The gig takes place on April 8th in Dublin’s Vicar Street venue and will be MC’d by Asa Murphy. Tickets are available here.

The show called ‘An evening with Ricky Tomlinson’ will be a funny, heartfelt evening with Ricky Tomlinson as he shares stories from his Liverpool roots, political activism, and iconic TV career.

Adam Burke, Jigsaw Wicklow’s Youth and Community Engagement Worker, got to meet Ricky and Asa before their RTE performance.

“I had a great chat with Ricky and Asa who really took the time to discuss Jigsaw and youth mental health in Ireland. They were really warm and keen to support in whatever way they could. Asa has similarly supported a UK mental health charity on that leg of the tour. He clearly had a great knowledge and passion for mental health and was incredibly impressed and supportive of Jigsaw’s work.”
