Killeedy Healthy Club All Stars:
The newly formed Killeedy Healthy Club All Stars held a taster session on Saturday 25th November. The aim of this initiative is to offer an inclusive, diverse & welcoming environment for everyone. The objective is to include children that for one reason or another could not take part in a typical team-based game.
The children who attended on Saturday enjoyed the fun and games. Thanks to all the volunteers, young and old who helped out. Killeedy Healthy Club All Stars will start up in early Spring and will run for a number of Saturdays with the maximum of 6 children (no more spaces available at present) who will get 1:1 support. Please email lauraahern83@hotmail.com or contact Laura 087 7760482 to be placed on a waiting list, if a space becomes available.
