SOCIAL GROUND FORCE

Social Ground Force is a dedicated Irish charity that tackles the twin crises of mental health distress and addiction. Based in Sligo, the organisation offers immediate, no‑appointment‑required assistance to anyone struggling with suicide thoughts, alcohol or drug dependence, gambling, or depression.

Their core services are delivered through a holistic “Circle of Recovery” approach, which includes face‑to‑face counselling, education and support programmes, safe‑environment housing, and community reintegration. The specialised Strike Force Counselling team can be dispatched at the request of individuals, families or friends, extracting sufferers from harmful situations and guiding them toward a safe new beginning. Following an initial assessment, the Education & Support arm creates a personalised plan that restores hope and outlines the most effective route to recovery.

Social Ground Force also keeps the public informed via regular news, events and social‑media updates, and welcomes volunteers and fundraisers who wish to join their mission of saving lives and rebuilding futures.
