Building of Hope: €100k for Mental Health

Donation protected
North West STOP have been a lifeline for many people in our community over the past 21 years. They have saved many lives and supported thousands of individuals across the North West.

To meet the ever increasing demand for our services, in 2021 we purchased the Old Garda Station in Drumkeeran to give North West STOP permanent home.

This building will be a dedicated mental health support centre in Leitrim. This is a huge step forward in our mission to provide accessible, community-based mental health services — but we cannot do it alone.

North West STOP is proud to share that we have been awarded LEADER and PEACE funding to renovate the old Garda Station in Drumkeeran.

In order to avail of this funding, we must raise €100,000 in match funding. These vital funds will not only help us meet this requirement but will also allow us to hire staff — something we currently have no funding for at all. Without this support, the building may stand, but we won’t have the people needed to bring it to life.

Every euro raised will directly support the creation of a safe, welcoming space where our community can access the help they need. With your support, we will be able to:

  • Hire our first staff members to keep the centre running.
  • Host mental health workshops to support people of all ages.
  • Provide specialist therapies, including play therapy for children and art therapy.
  • Expand our reach so that more individuals and families can find hope and healing.

This fundraiser is about more than a building — it’s about building a future of care, connection, and resilience for the people of Leitrim and the wider North West. Together, we can make sure that when someone needs support, there will always be a door open to welcome them.

Join us in laying the foundations for hope. Your donation no matter how big or small will make a huge impact.
