World Mental Health Day 2011 World Mental Health Day - Monday October 10th Theme for Mental Health Day 2011 - Building Resilience Together Mental Health Ireland will be running two national campaigns again this year around World Mental Health Day, the “Building Resilience Together Campaign” launched in 2010 and the National Choral Singing Project. Development Officers will be linking in with local Mental Health Associations to assist with the planning and organisation of these campaigns. Our local MHAs will also be busy organising their usual unique local events, many of which have been running for several years and have become traditional in their local areas. A national calendar of events celebrating World Mental Health Day, which falls on October 10th, will be compiled containing the final details of the activities listed on the following pages, as well as others still in the planning process. If you are planning an event, as soon as you have confirmed details, please let your local Development Officer know so that we can include it on the calendar of events which will be available on the MHI website, www.mentalhealthireland.ie. Choral events will also be listed on the Association of Irish Choirs’ website, www.aoic.ie.
