ONLY ONE MORE SLEEP! 🎅🎄

The countdown is nearly over and Santa’s sleigh is warming up!

Whether you plan to run, walk, shuffle or simply spectate and laugh at the festive eejits, we’d love to see you tomorrow! 🎉

Check out our page for more details and register using the QR code. We encourage you all to register rather than just turn up on the day, as it helps us plan and generally keep track of how many festive fools we’re responsible for!

ONLY TWO MORE SLEEPS! 🎄🎅

The excitement is building… and with around 50 Santas, elves, helpers and assorted eejits already signed up, it’s looking like this year’s Santa Fun Run is going to be a cracker! 🎉

If you haven’t registered yet, please use the QR code and sign up. We encourage you all to register rather than just turn up on the day, as it helps us plan and generally keep track of how many festive fools we’re responsible for!

And remember… this is not a serious run. If you’re expecting chipped timing, personal bests and elite athletic performance, you’re at the wrong event. The only chips you’ll need on the day are Jess’ Plaice, the best chippy for miles around!

This is a social gathering, a family day out, a festive walk with friends, and for some of the more enthusiastic among us, a gentle jog between refreshments.

Speaking of refreshments… you won’t go thirsty! Enjoy pick me ups at the Fire Station, Jubilee Wood and The Marine Bar!

Our route takes us from the Fire Station, up Islandmagee Road, along Slaughterford Road, into Jubilee Wood, back onto Islandmagee Road, down the hill, along the seafront and home to the Marine Bar.

So, whether you want to dress up and take part or simply stand and cheer the eejits on from the sidelines, we’d love to see you there💛

Now get signed up, get your Santa suit ready, and let’s make this the best fun run yet!

Dust off your Santa suit, grab your elves and join us NEXT WEEKEND for our Santa Fun Run!

3 miles, plenty of laughs, fancy dress and questionable seasonal timing. What could possibly go wrong? 😆

A Santa fun run… in June? 🤔 Are you sure that’s right? Well, it is Whitehead after all! 😉

Let’s be honest, December is cold, dark and wet. It’s much better in the June sunshine ☀️

So grab your Santa suit or elf outfit and join us for a 3-mile run/walk from Whitehead, around Jubilee Wood and back to the Marine Bar.

Expect plenty of craic along the way, with refreshments to power your journey!

What better way to kick off your summer?

Who’s in? We know we are!

Healthy Body Healthy Mind week couldn't finish up without a mention of the 26 hardy souls who headed to the Mournes last Saturday!

People of all ages and abilities braved the poor weather conditions and had the best of days!!

The view from the top was a little limited shall we say (see very foggy grey photos below☁️) but everyone walked as far or as little as they wanted. Some evening discovered a new route in the fog!

All arrived home safely with tired legs and a few new friendships made. No one seemed to be put off so we'll keep you posted of any future trips away 🚌

As Healthy Body, Healthy Mind Week comes to a close, we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who got involved. Whether you organised an event or came along to take part, we hope you had a great time and felt the benefits of moving your body and connecting with others.

This week may be ending, but the message doesn’t stop here. Let’s keep looking after both our physical and mental wellbeing every day. Even small steps can make a big difference.

Here in Whitehead, we’re so lucky to be surrounded by such a beautiful place. Let’s make the most of it. Get outside, bring a friend (or dog!) and keep each other motivated and accountable. Whether that’s creatively or physically, it all counts!

It’s amazing to see everyone coming together. Let’s keep it going 💛

How lovely to see everyone at the nursing home during Healthy Body, Healthy Mind Week 💙

The wonderful residents have been getting involved in a range of activities from relaxing armchair yoga and outdoor bingo, to painting, colouring, and even a bit of singing 🎶

It’s been so special to see everyone taking part, enjoying themselves, and supporting one another. Moments like these remind us how important it is to look after both our physical and mental wellbeing at every stage of life ☺️

Thank you to everyone down at the nursing home for getting involved💛

If you have any photos you’d like to share from this week, pop them over to us - we’d love to see them!!

What a fantastic time at the Craftsea Lighthouse event as part of Healthy Body, Healthy Mind Week! 🎨

The kids got stuck into some creative activities, and it’s amazing to see them enjoying themselves and expressing themselves through art. One wee boy shared “It’s so much more fun than laying around!" and we couldn’t agree more!!!

This week is all about wellbeing, and it’s a great reminder that being active doesn’t always mean physical exercise. Getting creative is just as important for a healthy mind 💙

We’d love to see what creative things you’ve been up to this week, or what you’re planning to try next!

If you’re looking for a little inspiration, why not join the Sip & Paint session at Craftsea Lighthouse this Saturday? It could be the perfect way to get creative! See our page for more details ☺️
