    Just thought I'd pop this into it's own thread here on Boards.ie - originally posted it up on Mikado though :)


    With RAG week taking place this year from February 25th - 29th it's time we got down to business. This year's charity is Pieta House.
    Pieta House, the Centre for the Prevention of Self-Harm or Suicide, opened its doors in January 2006 and is the first charity of its kind in Ireland. Pieta House offers a specialised treatment programme for people who have suicidal ideation or who participate in self-harming behaviours. In particular, this centre will target the people who have already attempted to take their lives the forgotten people. This service is free of charge, but donations are welcome. The specialized treatment programme offers a comprehensive service aimed at individuals and their families who are affected by:

    * Multiple suicidal attempts
    * Suicidal ideation
    * Continuous self-harming behaviours

    So here's the information I have, the mods can feel free to amend this any time they get more information

    Anyways..onto the lineup!
