It’s been a hectic couple of weeks at the Mens Group.

Our 6 week Summer Programme has been finalized so we are all looking forward to that starting on 13th July.

We’ve been busy with a variety of weekly activities in recent weeks. Pool, bingo and table quizzes are keeping our minds active while our bodies have been busy taking part of the weekly ’Sit Fit’ classes with our volunteer Noreen while some of us participated in woodwork sessions with volunteer Tom.

This week, as its Mens Health Week, we held a group discussion about alcohol and its impact on our mental & physical health. On Friday, we will team up with the Active Retirement Group to visit Aras an Uachtarain followed by a meal, all of which is a part of our social and personal development. We will post some photos of our visit next week – Hopefully we will get to meet the President!

Our taste buds have also been very active as we developed our cooking and baking skills at the Thursday classes. Some of us even got stuck into doing the washing up!

Check out the delicious samples of food that we’ve made below:
