DIFD
Transforming Youth Mental Health
Inspiring Conversations. Raising Awareness.
DIFD is a youth driven movement that creates an open dialogue about youth mental health.
With over 100 community led awareness and fundraising events held each year, the aim is to provide a platform that brings hope and inspiration to youth in our community and beyond.
