In Loving Memory of Our Dervla

On the 18th February 2021, our world was turned upside down with the loss of our precious Dervla.

It is almost one year since her death, and we want to continue the legacy she left here on Earth. Our Dervla was studying to be a paramedic. Dervla was one of the strongest people we knew. She had been through so much with her mental health, and she was working hard to give back and to help others. We know Dervla would have been the most amazing paramedic.

On the 19th February 2022, Dervla's family and friends will take part in a hike of Mount Errigal in her memory. In doing this, we want to raise money for local mental health charities in Derry. Money raised will provide counselling services for suicide, self-harm and bereavement therapy. We want to raise awareness of suicide and let people know that it is ok not to be ok. We want people to know that they are not alone.

As a family, we would like to thank everyone for their continued support over the past year. It hasn't gone unnoticed.
