Youth Mentoring Project (360G-CR-674611)

Lighthouse Ireland provides critical support and education for people vulnerable to and affected by suicide in an area of multiple deprivation in Belfast. Lighthouse's Youth Mentoring Project will proactively address the needs of young people through training peer educators; supporting young people in emotional crisis; education programmes in schools; and providing programmes for groups of young people. This work will lead to young people recording improvements in their mental health and a greater awareness of suicide prevention in the community.
