Mental Health Charter

The GAA’s Mental Health charter is a policy document that helps clubs develop a culture that supports and promotes positive mental health. The resource is designed to reinforce the GAA’s GIVE RESPECT GET RESPECT initiative’s positive message and transfer it into the world of mental wellbeing. It outlines a club culture that is inclusive and open and one that holds the following values clear.

The Charter

Respect
Everyone in the club will respect the rights, dignity and worth of each person, regardless of ability, age, culture or ethnic origin, gender, sexual orientation, or religious belief.

Encouraging
The club will ensure that everyone is treated equally, fairly, and encouraged to do their best.

Supportive
The club will ensure that all members are aware of and encouraged to use the support system that the club and its varied members provide.

Positive
Everyone’s positive contribution to club life is recognised and we understand that every member has an important role to play.

Enabling
We will create an environment and atmosphere within all club activity that enables all members of the Association to maintain as well as develop their mental health and emotional wellbeing.

Considerate
Everyone within our club will be listened to and be given an opportunity to contribute to express their opinions without reprisal or judgement.

Tolerant
An element of discipline will underpin our club to ensure that our games are controlled and that values such as honesty, equality, and fair play are promoted at all times.
