The Irish Support Agency invites you to our annual Shoulder to Shoulder event for the Irish Australian Male Community and their friends.

Following the tremendous success and outstanding feedback from our 2022 and 2023 events, we are back with more inspiring and thought-provoking stories from men in our community.

Shoulder to Shoulder aims to provide a safe space where men are asked to come together, to share and listen their own experience with mental health.

The event is facilitated by trained professionals in the mental health space. The day consists of a number of contributors and interviews, offering new insights and learnings about masculinity.

Previous contributors have included Tadhg Kennelly, Ciaran Gribbin, Ronan MacDomhnaill, Ciaran Davis, Mick Boyle, Shane Brennan.
