Interest in the Clubhouse model dates back to the early 1990’s when our auspice agency EVE Ltd carried out research to find a model of service, which could meet the varied needs of people with mental health difficulties.
Clubhouse was identified as having the capacity to achieve this. After many years of advocating with other interested groups of individuals for the opportunity to establish a Clubhouse, Irish Clubhouses started to develop.
Suaimhneas Clubhouse opened its doors in May 2003 and offers our 150+ members community, friendship and opportunities for housing, employment and education.
In late 2008 Suaimhneas Clubhouse was awarded ICCD certification an internationally recognised symbol of quality, and a credential which affirms that we are in fact operating as a clubhouse, and are in compliance with the International Standards for Clubhouse Programmes.
