This year, Mental Health Ireland is marking 60 years of supporting mental health across Ireland — and we’re inviting individuals, teams, and organisations to be part of the celebration through Move It 60 for 60.

The challenge is simple:

👉 Move 60km across the month of March

👉 Move in any way that suits you

👉 Raise vital funds for mental health education and community supports

Walking, running, cycling, swimming, wheeling — it all counts. You set the pace, the schedule, and the style of movement that works best for you.

Why movement?

Movement isn’t just good for physical health — it’s a powerful tool for mental wellbeing. Regular movement can help reduce stress, boost mood, and create space to reset in busy lives. Move It 60 for 60 encourages people to build movement into their routines while contributing to something bigger.

Why take part as an individual or organisation?

Move It 60 for 60 is ideal for:

  • Workplace wellbeing initiatives
  • Team challenges and staff engagement
  • Corporate social responsibility goals
  • Individuals who want to support mental health in a practical way

It’s inclusive, flexible, and achievable — no pressure, no competition, just collective impact.

Your impact

Funds raised through Move It 60 for 60 help Mental Health Ireland:

  • Deliver mental health education programmes nationwide
  • Support community-based mental health initiatives
  • Promote early intervention, connection, and prevention

Every kilometre moved helps create conversations, reduce stigma, and strengthen mental health supports across communities.
