Macroom GAA Healthy Club

January 26, 2024

We are very excited to start 2024 with a range of events from Macroom GAA Healthy Club to promote this initiative within our community. Some of the events include, Mental Health Workshop for players and parents, Macroom Lights Up for the month of February. Meet the clubs day  on 10th February, Darkness into Light in May, to name but a few but all upcoming events will be shared.
We would really appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to complete this quick survey to let us know what you would like to see from the Healthy Club but also is a chance for you to provide feedback on Macroom GAA club as a whole. 
Here is a little bit about Healthy Clubs for those that want to know more… 


WHAT IS THE GAA HEALTHY CLUB PROJECT (HCP)?
The Healthy Club project is a new way of looking at health in the context of the GAA. It features a unique partnership between the GAA and the HSE. To help it achieve in its ambition to make Ireland a healthier, happier, more connected place, it is kindly supported by Irish Life through a Corporate Social Responsibility investment.


WHAT IS THE AIM OF THE HCP?
The Healthy Club project aims to transform clubs into hubs for health within their communities. GAA clubs already contribute to the health and wellbeing of their members by providing opportunities to develop their physical, social, emotional, and psychological health. The HCP aims to help GAA clubs identify what they are already doing well, identify areas where they can or would like to improve, and empower them to ensure that everyone who engages with their club benefits from the experience in a health-enhancing way, be they players, officers, coaches, parents, supporters, or members of their local community. The ultimate aim of the project is to involve every GAA club in the country, thus enhancing the long-term health of every community in the 32 counties and ensuring a healthier future for everyone.
