🌿💚 Today’s Coffee Morning was all about our health!

As part of our Health Above All project, Kateryna led an incredibly interesting and informative session focused on back health and building a strong body. 🏋️‍♀️

It was more than just an informative talk — it was an engaging and motivating session full of practical advice on how to take proper care of your back, exercise without pain or injury, and keep your body strong and healthy.

💚 A huge thank you to Kateryna for her professionalism, energy, motivation, and for sharing her knowledge with us!

And, of course, thank you to everyone who joined us at today’s Coffee Morning. You are the ones who create the special, warm atmosphere of our gatherings! ☕️💛

See you at our next Health Above All sessions! 🌿

🧘‍♀️🌿 Yoga in Nature — Taking Time to Care for Yourself

During our Family Picnic in Gort, everyone had the opportunity to join a relaxing outdoor yoga session.

Surrounded by nature, we took time to breathe, move, unwind, and reconnect with ourselves. It was a peaceful space with no rush—just calmness, harmony, and the joy of sharing a beautiful moment with others. 💚

Activities like these remind us that good health is about much more than physical fitness. It is also about inner balance, emotional wellbeing, and giving ourselves the chance to slow down and recharge.

We are delighted that sports and wellness activities became an important part of our Family Day, and we look forward to creating even more opportunities for our community to enjoy an active and healthy lifestyle together.

💛 Thank you to everyone who took part and helped create such a warm, positive, and welcoming atmosphere!

Together, we are building a stronger, healthier, and more connected community. See you at our next wellness event! 🌿🧘‍♀️

🌿☀️ A Warm Family Day in Gort! ☀️🌿

This weekend, we enjoyed a wonderful Family Picnic in Gort, bringing together children, parents, and friends from our community.

The day was filled with fun activities, creative workshops, sports, laughter, and meaningful conversations. It was truly heartwarming to see families spending quality time together, making new friends, supporting one another, and simply enjoying a beautiful summer day in a welcoming atmosphere. 💙

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, helped with the organisation, and made this event so special. Your enthusiasm and kindness are what make our community stronger. 💛

We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to Galway County Council, Gort Resource Centre, and Coole Park for their support, partnership, and hospitality. Your contribution made this wonderful community event possible, and we truly appreciate your continued support.
