Amber Flag

The Amber Flag is an inititive from Pieta House around promoting positive mental health (full details can be found here). We were awarded an Amber Flag in June 2023

The Amber Committee had some great ideas as we worked towards each goal over the course of the year.

Our journey is catured in pictures below.
