Duality Healthcare announces new charity partnership with PIPS Suicide Prevention Ireland 

Duality Healthcare is set to support leading mental health and crisis support organisation PIPS Suicide Prevention Ireland throughout 2026. 

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to improving access to compassionate, timely mental health support and strengthening the services available for those at risk. 

Duality Healthcare is a leading provider of private general practice and primary care across Northern Ireland with clinics in Omagh, Newry, Ballymena and Derry~Londonderry, as well as a new clinic in Belfast opening in March.  

Holly McGeeneyMurrary, Head of Marketing, at Duality Healthcare says: “We know from our own experience in the healthcare sector that it’s not always easy to start a conversation about feelings. By partnering with PIPS Charity and partaking in events to raise funds for the charity, we are reflecting our commitment to enhancing mental health services across Northern Ireland.”  

At the heart of PIPS Charity’s work is its mission of striving for a compassionate society free from suicide. Guided by this purpose, the charity supports thousands of people each year through some of the most difficult moments of their lives, providing professional, empathetic, and life-saving care. 

PIPS Charity’s work extends beyond immediate crisis support alone. The charity partners with schools, workplaces, sporting organisations and community groups to deliver education, training and awareness programmes, helping to reduce stigma around mental health and suicide while building resilience across communities. 

Holly from Duality Healthcare adds, “The work that PIPS Charity does across Northern Ireland is an absolute necessity. They provide incredible services, and we want to play our role in not only highlighting the great work they do, but also raising funds so that they can expand the reach of these vital services.” 

Lisa Abell-Farrelly, Fundraising Manager at PIPS Charity, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Duality Healthcare, whose commitment to wellbeing and community aligns so closely with our own. Partnerships like this play a vital role in helping us continue delivering crisis support, counselling and prevention services across Northern Ireland. Together, we can reach more people in need, reduce stigma, and work towards a compassionate society free from suicide.”
