Derry Diocesan Resources for Mental Health Week
3rd Feb 2021
During Children’s Mental Health Week, Derry Diocesan Education Officer is delighted to share two short videos with you by Elma Walsh, mother of Donal Walsh. Donal was a remarkable young man, whose faith sustained him having been diagnosed with cancer at the age of 11. Donal had amazing faith and believed totally that he was loved by God and there was nothing you couldn’t cope with because God is always with you. He died on the 12th May 2013 and gave an incredible interview on RTE before that. You can find out more about Donal at
