We’re honoured to support the Every Little Thing Festival – a powerful initiative held annually in September, dedicated to raising awareness around mental health, wellness, and suicide prevention. The festival was created by Sinead Gibson in memory of her daughter, Diva Gibson, who tragically lost her life to suicide on 10th May 2020. Through this heartfelt project, Sinead continues to work tirelessly to support those facing mental health challenges and to offer hope and help to anyone in need. Sinead will be here on the day to help raise awareness and share her story.
And that’s not all – we have even more surprises coming on the day, so keep your eyes peeled and get your dancing shoes ready!
