Community Wellbeing Winners At the start of December, we were delighted with the news that we won first place in the Navan Municipal District's for Best Wellbeing Project. The project saw us deliver mental health packs to young people right across the county, during the first wave of the pandemic. The response was based on the 5 ways to wellbeing: Give, Connect, Be Active, Keep Learning and Take Notice, with an item or activity to help integrate wellbeing into a young persons life. |
