*Save Owenacurra Centre campaign*

The Owenacurra Centre has provided essential long-stay, respite and day mental health services in Midleton for many years. Issues with the premises require government investment. A decision to close the Centre and remove these services from Midleton would impact on people with the highest level of need. The Owenacurra Centre is considered home to its nineteen residents. It is a model of community-based rehabilitation. Midleton cannot afford to lose the Owenacurra Centre. 

Please sign this position to help reverse the decision of the HSE to close this essential service. #ImproveUsDontMoveUs

We should investing more in our mental health services not closing them down!
