Our Strategy

Developing a new Strategy is an exciting, challenging and time-consuming process for any organisation. It presents an opportunity to press pause and to take the time to reflect on our work, on who we are, what our values are and why we do what we do.

Our Strategy

MENTAL HEALTH IRELAND STRATEGY 2025 – 2027 Educating, Empowering and Connecting Communities

It encourages conversations about the very core of who we are as a charity, how we define ourselves and what we are aspiring to do in a meaningful and sustainable way. (Dr Lisa Cuthbert, CEO, Mental Health Ireland)

The three Priority Areas of our new Strategy are:

  1. Community, Partnerships and Collaboration
  2. Education, Training and Information
  3. Identity and Visibility

With further discussion and analysis, it became clear that the theme of organisational structure was another foundational theme coming throughout the data.

As a charity, it is critical that we don’t lose sight of the resources needed to implement a new Strategy. Therefore, it was decided to echo the approach to the mental health and wellbeing theme and ensure that each priority had an objective that focused on organisational structure and that we are ensuring our capacity to implement the new Strategy.
