Mental Health Week in EVE
A recap
Various events and activites took place in EVE services throughout the week. A recap on these activites are as follows:
On Tuesday, 10th October for World Mental Health Day, Cairdeas Clubhouse hosted the launch of their ‘Creativity and Wellness’ Booklet.
The Booklet is a collaborative effort containing words and images of positive mental health and creativity, and also highlighting the importance of the Healthy Ireland framework in the clubhouse. Their celebrations, which started at 12 noon, included readings from the Booklet, finger food and treats. Cairdeas welcomed members, their family members and friends, and other local community stakeholders. The event was greatly enjoyed.
