The head of the HSE and the Minister for Mental Health are to open a new e - mental health hub in Castlerea on Monday,

The CAMHS Connect service will be located at the site of the former Rosalie Unit in the town and will provide a new on-line and telephone-based mental health service for the entire country.

The former centre for older people with dementia closed at the beginning of last December when the final two residents of the facility were moved out after a long-running campaign by locals to keep it open.
