When Mick Ryan lost his son through sucide his world fell apart. Six years ago he decided that he would try to save even one life. He believes his son told him to do what he could, and he did. It started with just one teddy bear. A symbol he believes takes us all back to our childhoods. He placed it on a bridge with a note saying, "Your friends and family love you". He also left his own name and phone number, and the number of a su!c!de support line. He got a call one night and was able to help a young person who saw the Teddy and that’s when it took off. Mick drove around the country with his daughter placing Teddy bears and notes and solar lights on bridges, train tracks and on riversides, all in the hope that he could save eleven one life. But it’s done more than that. Not only has he saved a life, he has started a nationwide campaign, where people from all over of Ireland are now asking Mick for his signs and putting up their own bears. He’s even had messages from people in the U.K. and the US thanking him and lwttimg him know that they have taken on his idea..... and it’s working ❤️ Mick is 74. He’s recovering from a serious illness and he’s on a walker, but he said he won’t stop what he’s doing until he’s not around anymore to do it. We need more Micks in this world. Please suport this lovely short film showing the power of not just a village, but a little island. Producer- Yvonne Kinsella - That’s A Wrap TV Director - Martin Daneels. Camera - Joe Edwards. We need this film to be made, and im saying that as someone with absolutely zero to do with the production. We need more stories about the heros like Mick who are out there giving their lives to save strangers. What beautiful Human Being. That Go fund me link is in the comments as X doesnt like them.

After arriving at Ireland West Airport Airport I saw 83 year old Imelda Loftus hitchhiking a lift. it turned out to be 20 minutes of great craic and conversation. I absolutely love chatting to our elderly and hearing about their lives. She's amazing. If you come across her,pick her up.
