World Mental Health Day 2026: Lived Experiences Heard, Real Voices, Real Change

World Mental Health Day takes place on 10th October 2026 and provides an important opportunity to recognise the voices of those with lived experience of mental health challenges.

Being heard, understood and providing meaningful access to appropriate support can help individuals build confidence, resilience and the strength to seek the help they need. Listening to people and recognising their individual circumstances is an essential part of promoting positive mental health. Mental health support is not simply about helping those who are struggling. It is also about creating a culture where open, compassionate and considerate conversations are encouraged, without judgement or stigma.

For those who require legal advice, O’Reilly Stewart is committed to treating every client with dignity, respect and understanding, while providing clear and practical advice about their legal options.

We recognise that legal issues rarely exist in isolation. They can have a significant impact on families, employment, housing and overall wellbeing. World Mental Health Day 2026 is therefore an opportunity for us all to reflect on the importance of listening without judgement, understanding individual experiences and recognising the strength that can come from having the confidence and opportunity to share and seek support.

Our client was involved in a traumatic Road Traffic Accident. She was the driver of a car struck by a third-party vehicle with a further secondary impact on a traffic light.

Our client sustained a minor head injury as well as soft tissue injuries to her neck, upper and lower back which required physiotherapy and time off work. She also suffered from an adjustment disorder following the accident as well as related travel anxiety.

Our client instructed Stuart Gilmore to investigate the circumstances of the accident. Medical reports were obtained from a Consultant in Emergency Medicine, a Consultant Psychiatrist, a Psychotherapist and Consultant Radiologist. Court proceedings were issued to protect our client’s position in the matter and Counsel was instructed to act on their behalf.

With our client’s authority, the case was ultimately settled with the other driver’s insurer and legal team without the need for a hearing. The case was settled for a figure in excess of £50,000.

Some of our team swapped their laptops for gardening gloves as they returned to Northern Ireland Hospice to volunteer in the Children’s Hospice gardens! 🌿

The team spent the day maintaining and freshening up the gardens, helping to ensure they remain a peaceful, welcoming space for children and their families.

It is always incredibly rewarding to step away from our desks, give our time, and support such an inspiring charity.

A huge thank you to Jessica Steele and Trevor McCartney for having us, and to everyone on our team who got stuck in and helped make a real difference. 💜

Belfast Neurology Recall: Misdiagnosis of Epilepsy

O’Reilly Stewart recently obtained a settlement of £45,000 on behalf of our client who experienced substandard care provided by a Consultant Neurologist.

Our client was incorrectly diagnosed with epilepsy and treated inappropriately over a number of years with anticonvulsant medication which caused side effects.

Dionne Darragh of O’Reilly Stewart was instructed to investigate the care and treatment provided to our client. Dionne obtained copies of our client’s clinical records and instructed an independent Consultant Neurologist to comment on whether the treatment our client received amounted to a breach of duty and to what extent this caused harm to our client.

It was the opinion of the independent expert that the overall treatment our client received fell below what would be expected of a responsible body of Neurologists in that a misdiagnosis was made and our client was treated inappropriately which ultimately caused them to suffer harm as a result. There was also a failure by the treating clinician to ever reconsider our client’s diagnosis.

High Court proceedings were issued to protect our client’s position and to progress their case. It was ultimately agreed that damages of £45,000 would be paid to our client.
