It is important that during this time we protect our mental as well as our physical health. There are a lot of things that could be causing us anxiety, and stress that impacts our mood. It could be the lack of physical contact with family and friends, drastic changes to daily routines, and worry about the possibility of you or a loved one contracting Covid-19. If your mental health is affected in any way by the situation we encourage you to reach out for support and ask for help. That could be talking to a person you trust, your GP or and ourselves at Sligo Traveller Support Group on 0719145780. We will support you in any way we can in total confidence and privacy. You can also contact one of the other organisations above
