DONEGAL FOOTBALL MANAGER Jim McGuinness has joined a campaign urging people battling mental health problems to turn to someone they trust.

McGuinness appears alongside rugby stars Alan Quinlan and John Muldoon, Galway football captain Finian Hanley and Mayo corner-back Kevin Keane in a video which asks “Who would you tell?”

The video was made as part of a final year project by three students studying Public Health & Health Promotion in IT Sligo.

McGuinness said: “It’s something that just stops you in your tracks and you wish that you could do something, or that you would have known or that you could have helped, but the reality is that sometimes you don’t.

“I think that’s why it’s so important that if you’re in any way down or if you’re carrying anything, if you feel depressed or anything, try and seek people out and don’t carry it yourself.”
