The Law Society of Ireland has unveiled a new Elephant in the Room sculpture to promote mental health awareness.

Elephant in the Room is a social enterprise which aims to challenge the stigma around mental health using sculptures of elephants.

The newly-installed elephant is “a declaration of the Law Society’s commitment to creating an open culture in which no aspect of mental health is taboo”.

Elephant in the Room co-founders Brent Pope and Dave Southern unveiled the new sculpture during the Law Society’s Well Within the Law Festival.
