Last Friday, we had the honour of welcoming President Catherine Connolly to our service at Breffni FRC
It was a privilege to have the opportunity to speak with President Connolly and to present her with a unique gift created by talented local artist Helena Golden. It was a wonderful opportunity to showcase the creativity within our community and to share a small piece of the incredible work happening here every day.
We are grateful for the President's visit and her interest in the work being carried out in our community. It is a day we will remember with great pride.

Happy Social Prescribing Day! 🌿✨

This morning, Sarah was out at the Boardwalk in Carrick, promoting the service and encouraging connection in the best way—through a few fun games of Connect 4! A big thank you to everyone who stopped by for a chat and a game. It was lovely to see so many people taking a moment to connect and enjoy themselves.

In the afternoon. we hosted a Vision Board workshop, and we’re so grateful to everyone who joined us. Your creativity, positivity, and openness made it such a meaningful and inspiring session.

Days like today remind us how important connection, community, and wellbeing truly are. 💚

Special thank you to Mandie for braving the rain and joining me to play Connect 4
