A special announcement for something close to our hearts!
I want to open up to you on a charity called ShareJoy
ShareJoy is a wonderful charity founded in memory of a bright and beautiful local woman Arwen Sullivan who lost her battle with mental illness in the early weeks of the Lockdown.
Arwen's mum Marie has shared her story through ShareJoy in the hope that it will foster greater empathy around mental illness and start a new chapter in the conversation surrounding suicide prevention and bereavement.
There's no doubt that clothes and fashion can bring us joy, and that is a belief Arwen would have shared. With a desire to create something meaningful in her memory, Marie got some friends involved and ShareJoy was created.
Through Sharejoy, pre-loved clothes are donated and sold on Depop, with the proceeds going to Pieta House, supporting people in crisis by providing freely accessible, professional service across the country.
Some fabulous pre-loved items of clothing have been donated by many formidable Irish women including Laura Whitmore, Louise Kennedy, Caroline Foran and Angela Scanlon.
When Marie asked if we could donate an item to the Depop shop I was happy to help. I decided we could go one better than a simple donation and so we came up with an idea to raise funds for ShareJoy with a little campaign of our own. And here it is.....
We are going to sell 100 of these beautiful wooly oversized scarves, at an amazing price of only €20 and we are donating every cent of your purchase to Share Joy
Order your scarf now!
We've got 2 gorgeous styles to choose from, both with a purple theme to compliment ShareJoy and a reminder of Arwen's favourite colour.
These gorgeous cosy scarves will make a beautiful and meaningful gift for a loved one this Christmas, while supporting the great work being done for our young people through ShareJoy and Pieta House.
Let's make a difference!
