About

We, North Coast Friends, are coming together to walk 13 miles from Carrick-a-Rede to Portballintrae Boat Club on Saturday 6th June, as a team to show solidarity and support for each other, those we care for and everyone we know that has or are battling with their mental health. 

Self care, connection and support are very important. So please feel free to sponsor us, as little or as much as you can and support us as we take on The Giant Steps as a team!

On average, 1 in 5 people in Northern Ireland will experience an issue with their mental health in their lifetime. AWARE NI's mission is to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health while promoting the importance of looking after your mental health and well-being. AWARE NI also want to ensure people can access services appropriate to their needs, and we want to inform, educate and raise awareness of mental health in Northern Ireland. 

By supporting AWARE NI's Giant Steps, you are continuing to help AWARE provide vital support to those living with mental illness in Northern Ireland.
