Thosaigh redrosethorns mar shiopa ar líne a dhíolann coinnle doirteadh de láimh, ag tosú in 2020. Ba é an sprioc a bhí againn sa deireadh ná spás a chruthú ina bhféadfaimis daoine eile a chumhachtú trí oideachas ar shaincheisteanna amhail meabhairshláinte, cleachtais féinchúraim, agus inscne/gnéasacht. Creidimid sa chomhionannas agus tuigimid go bhfuil castachtaí sochaíocha ann a choinníonn siar sinn agus a choinníonn roinnte agus faoi cheannas córas patriarchach sinn. Creidimid go bhfuil bealach amháin chun dul ar aghaidh agus briseadh na slabhraí seo, trí oideachas, feasacht, féin-leighis, agus pobail.
Agus an misean seo á chur san áireamh, cuireann redrosethorns seirbhísí cóitseála ar fáil, ag baint úsáide as teicníochtaí teiripe chognaíoch iompraíochta (CBT) chun daoine aonair a mhúineadh conas nascadh lena gcroí féin, agus cuirimid ceardlanna ar fáil ar chleachtais féinchúraim chun a bhféinfhiúntas a mhéadú. Cuirimid deiseanna foilsitheoireachta ar fáil freisin - trínár n-irisleabhar bliantúil agus dár n-irisleabhar ar líne - chun daoine a spreagadh chun a nglór a chur in iúl. Is iad na scéalta atá againn ná na rudaí a cheanglaíonn sinn, ach freisin a chuireann ar ár gcumas bogadh isteach i dtreo atá níos ailínithe le cé muid féin, lenár luachanna agus lenár paisin. Is tríd seo is féidir linn tosú ar an patriarchacht, duine cumasaithe amháin, agus pobail chumhachtaithe a dhíchóimeáil ag an am céanna.
