The Aisling Centre has proudly launched its beautiful new cards - just in time for Christmas!

This year’s unique collection features local photographs kindly donated by Richard Pierce.

By purchasing this gorgeous, exclusive card, your gift will go towards supporting local mental health services.

The cards sit alongside a beautiful set of limited-edition photographic prints, also by Richard, who described himself as "honoured" when approached to provide images for the 2024 Christmas Cards.

He added that the work of the Aisling Centre is very “close to his heart”, and that his firm belief is that “we must all learn to talk about mental illness and the stresses which life brings, and support each other as a community”.

All the cards produced by Aisling Centre are printed on sustainably-sourced paper and depict a beautiful original piece of artwork by a local artist which if framed, would make a lovely print for any wall.

Previous cards have featured artwork by Patricia Martinelli, Grainne Knox and Sheila Gilroy-Collins.

The cards can provide delight to family and friends while also helping local people find hope and healing.

Aisling Centre cards are suitable for any occasion, and are available to buy all year round, but their message of hope is particularly resonant at Christmas.

With three designs, the cards are reasonably priced at £4.50 for a pack of 9. The cards are blank inside, which make them suitable for whatever message you wish to share with a loved one.

Cards are available to purchase from the Aisling Centre and Westend Coffee shop.
