Established in response to the profound impact of mental health challenges witnessed within my own family, the O’Flynn Foundation serves as a cornerstone for individuals and families on low incomes who are suffering from serious mental health issues. Understanding the devastating effects these conditions can have, particularly on young children, Jayne Anne O’Flynn is driven by a deep-seated passion to make a positive difference in as many lives as possible.

community, helping to alleviate the burden on NHS waiting lists, especially in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic. The pandemic has exacerbated mental health issues, leaving thousands, particularly children, in need of support. The foundation steps in to fill this gap, providing timely assistance and care.
Jayne Anne O’Flynn’s dedication to this cause is fuelled by a personal experience that highlighted the urgent need for mental health support and the devastating impact it can have on a family.

Through the O’Flynn Foundation, a beacon of hope and a catalyst for change, ensuring that no one has to face mental health challenges alone.
