Every year in Monaghan, there are many attacks on sheep by dogs, particularly around lambing time. These attacks cause great cruelty and result in sheep and lambs dying from their injuries, lambs being aborted, and stock not thriving for fear of further attacks. These attacks result in serious losses for the farmer, including veterinary fees, disposal of dead animals, the value of the dead sheep and lambs, and loss of thrive. Any dog, large or small, may become involved in attacking sheep - MAKE SURE YOUR DOG DOESN’T GET THE CHANCE! If you own a dog or dogs, you are required to:
  • Keep your dog under control at all times. This means not allowing your dog off your property unaccompanied.
  • Have a microchip certificate of registration which proves that your dog is microchipped and registered to you. (Required since April 2016)
  • Ensure that every dog under your control wears a collar bearing the name and address of the owner at all times and that the name and address are legible.
  • Have a current licence for each dog in your possession or a general dog licence to cover all dogs in your possession. YOU CAN NOW BUY YOUR DOG LICENCE ONLINE AT monaghan.ie

https://bookwhen.com/suicidepreventiontrainingcho1/e/ev-s3qb-20231012090000 Key messages for World Suicide Prevention Day The theme of World Suicide Prevention Day on 10th September 2022 is “Creating Hope through action”. It is a time when we can spread a message of hope to others. Even though suicide is a very complex issue, we can always look out for others who might be experiencing suicidal thoughts, and provide support. This helps to create a more caring society where those who need to, feel more comfortable in seeking help. The following messages are some examples of actions that can help to create hope this World Suicide Prevention Day. “REACH IN” Reach in to someone you know who might be having difficulties. Find a comfortable space and time to sit and be present with them. Use open questions and tell them you care about them. You don’t need to have all the answers. If they share things with you, listen - stay calm, be patient and kind. Remember that bringing up the topic of suicide with someone will not make suicide more likely. It can be really helpful for a person just to have a safe space to open up, know that they are heard and that they are not alone at a difficult time. Tips on being a good listener, HSE yourmentahealth.ie Supporting someone who might be suicidal, HSE yourmentalhealth.ie “REACH OUT” If you are feeling particularly low, sad or hopeless, always remember that sharing things with someone else will help. Reaching out to talk with someone - someone close or even a support organisation - might initially feel frightening. Even if you can’t find the right words, when you take that first step and start to share and talk about what’s going on for you, things can become clearer. The right words will come, and you will start to feel more hopeful. Talk about how you feel, HSE yourmentalhealth.ie “BE THE LIGHT” Connect with a support or community organisation. Volunteer, help spread their messages and become involved in activities that promote positive mental health and wellbeing or suicide prevention in your community. Always think about the person and what they might be going through when talking about suicide. Remain compassionate and be respectful of the lives that have been lost, and others who have been bereaved. Remember that people can and do get through times of crisis, and that a positive message of recovery, can be protective and hopeful for others to hear. What to say to someone going through a tough time, HSE yourmentalhealth.ie ‘WORDS MATTER’ The topic of suicide should always be approached with care and compassion. It is important to use sensitive and non-stigmatising language when engaging in a conversation, talking or writing about suicide. Using language and words that are helpful and respectful, will encourage open and safe conversations about suicide, and its prevention. They can help to create environments that are free of stigma, judgment or prejudice. Always avoid using the term ‘commit suicide’ –this can imply a sin, criminal offence or act, and therefore can be stigmatising –of the person who has died, or of people who have been bereaved. In general, use neutral and simple terms such as ‘died by suicide’, ‘die by suicide’ or ‘death by suicide’. More tips on language and suicide from the HSE National Office for Suicide Prevention (NOSP)   “INCREASE YOUR AWARENESS” If someone tells you that they are having thoughts of suicide, stay calm and don’t be afraid. There are always helpful things you can do and there are training programmes that can help prepare you. Free suicide prevention and awareness programmes are available from the HSE. These can build your confidence, help you recognise people who might be at risk of suicide, ask them about suicide, and connect them with helpful supports and services. For example:
  • LivingWorks Start, a 90 minute online programme
  • safeTALK, a half day face-to-face programme
Visit www.nosp.ie/training for more information. “KNOW WHERE TO TURN” Get to know what mental health supports and services are available, and tell more people about them. Speak with a GP about what might be available locally. Tell your family, your friends, your colleagues – you never know when someone might need them. Many are open 24/7 and you can make contact in different ways, for example:
  • on the phone – Samaritans, or Freephone 116 123
  • by text message – Text about it, text HELLO to 50808, visit wwww.textaboutit.ie
  • online – MyMind,
  • face-to-face – Pieta,or Freephone 1800 247 247.
You can also call the HSE YourMentalHealth Information Line, anytime day or night, for information on what other services and supports are available near you – Freephone 1800 111 888 . Remember that people can and do get through times of crisis, and that a positive message of recovery, can be protective and hopeful for others to hear. If you, or someone you know is at immediate risk of harm, go to or call the emergency department of your local general hospital. You can also contact emergency services on 112 or 999 anytime, day or night.   [post_title] => World Suicide Prevention Day - 10th September - Resources available [post_excerpt] => [post_status] => publish [comment_status] => closed [ping_status] => closed [post_password] => [post_name] => wspd23 [to_ping] => [pinged] => [post_modified] => 2023-09-11 09:50:55 [post_modified_gmt] => 2023-09-11 08:50:55 [post_content_filtered] => [post_parent] => 0 [guid] => https://monaghan.ie/?p=14887 [menu_order] => 0 [post_type] => post [post_mime_type] => [comment_count] => 0 [filter] => raw )
