Drinkaware are delighted to work with Chartered Accountants Members Services to support employee alcohol awareness through our Workplace Wellness Programme.

Drinkaware’s mission is to work with others to fundamentally and permanently change attitudes and behaviours so that drinking to excess and drinking underage become unacceptable. We do this by raising awareness, creating understanding and supporting behaviour change through evidence-led education and effective communications.

A Lust for Life is a national wellbeing movement created to transform how we talk about and treat mental health. Our vision is a world where the wellbeing of humanity is the headliner on the main stage, and everything else, a support act. We started our life as a website, and since then, our mission has grown to (1) Support, inspire and empower people to take care of their own minds (2) Change societal/cultural norms around mental health and (3) Change societal infrastructure so that our culture and society always catch people when they fall. We are working to help break down the stigma around mental health by sharing personal stories and amplifying people’s experiences of a broken mental health system. We are advocating for change at policy level through our website, podcasts and live events. We platform artistic work to show there are many faces to mental wellbeing and mental ill-health; and many ways of coping, some beyond the reach of words. And we’re currently piloting an innovative new educational digital platform for children (aged 9-12) to share video content, created by them, for them; that address the psychological issues they face today.

Spun Out is Ireland’s youth information website, by young people, for young people. We provide information to around 150,000+ active readers each month.

Established in 2005, Spun Out’s vision is help create an Ireland where young people aged between 16 and 25 are empowered with the information they need to live active, happy, and healthy lives.

Our aim is to educate and inform our readers about the importance of holistic wellbeing and how good health can be maintained, both physically and mentally.

We believe we should have easy access to relevant, reliable, and non-judgemental information and we are proud to provide our readers with a dynamic, responsive website full of up-to-date, factual information, free of any shame.

Age Action supports and advocates for equality and human rights for all older people. Each year, on average, 2,500 people contact Age Action’s Information Service about a wide range of issues that affect them and their families.

The Information Service is staffed by trained Information Officers who provide people with information and a listening ear in order to empower them to make informed decisions and choices about the issues that affect them.

Typically the Information Service answers questions on entitlements such as pensions or carers allowance, accessing community supports, accommodation issues such as fair deal scheme, homecare supports and age discrimination.
