On Saturday 24th October, Niall will take on the huge challenge of running 80km from Bondi to Manly in Sydney, Australia, all to raise funds for The Well Hub. ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บโค๏ธ

The Well is a su***de prevention charity supporting people in our local community when they need it most.

Niall has set himself a fundraising target of ยฃ2,000, and weโ€™d love to see the Kilkeel, Mourne and Irish community in Australia get behind him and show their support! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Itโ€™s amazing to have someone taking on such a huge challenge thousands of miles away for people back home.

Every donation, share and bit of support will help build momentum as we get closer to the big day!

Go on, Niall! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธโค๏ธ

Last Tuesday, The Well was at Stormont for the launch of *A Shared Responsibility*, the report on funding su***de prevention in Northern Ireland.

The findings were of absolutely no surprise to us or anyone.

PAPYRUS gave evidence to the inquiry. It has since entered administration and its helpline has closed. That should make the urgency impossible to ignore.

We donโ€™t need another wish list. We need care people can count on, community services that can keep going, and funding that is real: money that exists, is committed and reaches the frontline. Communities cannot keep carrying the cost of delay.

World Su***de Prevention Day was 10 September. But su***de prevention can't be a one-day conversation.
This year's theme is changing the narrative. For The Well, that means changing what we do, not just what we say.

Before we go any further, some thank-yous that matter.
To Maire McKibbin, who turned a deeply personal loss into action and didn't wait for anyone's permission to do it. it's not the first fundraiser she has organised for us.

To Kilkeel Golf Club: Christy Quinn, Pauline Cole, the captains, the committee, the members and every golfer who played, sponsored or donated. You didn't just host a fundraiser. You got behind it as a club.

To every business on that sponsor board, and to everyone who bought a ticket, donated a prize or worked behind the scenes.
To Mourne Peak, right now out on the mountains for The Well with Every Step Matters.
And to the Observer for telling the story.
You are the reason a small charity from Kilkeel can do what it does today.
Because, that support takes us to Stormont for the launch of the All-Party Group's report on cross-departmental funding for su***de prevention. We are in that room because of you.
Northern Ireland can't afford for su***de prevention to stand still. At The Well, we won't keep doing things just because other places always have.
We keep learning, being innovative to the times we live in-not what kind of worked 20 years ago, we use the evidence, and ask what could be done better. If the numbers aren't changing enough, which they are not, we have to be willing to change the approach.
That's not about being different for the sake of it.
It's about whether someone is still here tomorrow.
Su***de prevention cannot stand still. Neither will we. ๐Ÿ’š

When did you last check on the strong one? ๐Ÿ’›
The one everyone leans on.
The one who never asks for much.
The one who always says theyโ€™re fine.
Strong people struggle too. Ask twice. Listen properly.

Youโ€™ve checked your phone. Now check on someone. ๐Ÿ’›
Because sometimes the message you nearly didnโ€™t send
is the one someone needed most.
The person who says โ€œIโ€™m grand.โ€
The one who has gone quiet.
The one who keeps showing up for everyone else.
Ask again. Stay a little longer. Listen properly.
You may never know how much that moment mattered.

THIS TIME LAST YEAR, I COULDNโ€™T LEAVE THE HOUSE...

Social media usually shows the shiny bits โ€” the views, summits, milestones, finished products. But itโ€™s important to share some of the behind the scenes too.

Stepping away from the corporate world created space to slow down, get outside and appreciate the place we call home.

The Mournes and getting outdoors became a big part of that journey and ultimately helped inspire Mourne Peak โ›ฐ๏ธ

If you've been following us recently, you'll probably notice a few more stories of running ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm now in Week 7 of Couch to 5K ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธThe goal is simple: keep moving, challenge myself and see how far I can go to WK-9. Reece Parkinson has been keeping me motivated through Couch to 5K, while Dander has been helping track the runs.

And this weekend, Mourne Peak passed 100 sales, meaning the Peak Community has now helped raise ยฃ100+ for The Well through our ยฃ1-per-sale commitment.

Genuinely delighted. Thank you, Peak Community โค๏ธโ›ฐ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘Œ

The Well does vital work supporting mental health/ wellbeing in our local community. But we want to do more...

WE'RE NOW AIMING TO RAISE ANOTHER ยฃ500 FOR THE WELL.

๐Ÿ† THE WELL GOLF CLASSIC 2026 โ€” WINNERS! โ›ณ๐Ÿ’—

What a winning round! A huge congratulations to all our winners and a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who donated, played and supported the day.

A very special thank you to Maire McKibben for her tireless support in making it happen โ€” we simply couldnโ€™t do fundraisers like this without people like Maire. ๐Ÿ’—

But behind every drive, putt and bit of craic was a serious purpose โ€” su***de prevention.

With 290 su***des registered in Northern Ireland in 2024 we must keep driving forward change, encouraging new thinking and putting su***de prevention front and centre.

โ›ณ Together, weโ€™re teeing up hope and driving change.๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’—
