\nSt. Patrick\u2019s University Hospital is Ireland\u2019s largest, independent not for profit mental health\u00a0service provider.\u00a0All monies raised will be used to assist in funding Mental Health Matters, the 5-year\u00a0strategy of the Hospital. Through this strategy, St. Patrick\u2019s University Hospital is committed\u00a0to developing a wide range of new services and treatments.
