Adult Carers Enjoy Self Care Event In Killough

Self-Care Event for adult carers at Preaching House Pottery in Killough

Newry Mourne and Down District Council’s Downpatrick, Rowallane and Slieve Croob District Electoral Areas (DEAs), in partnership with the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust, hosted a Self-Care Event for adult carers at Preaching House Pottery in Killough on 10 June.

The event provided carers with an opportunity to enjoy some well-deserved respite and participate in a range of relaxing activities, including mosaic plate making, art, chutney making and seed bombing.

It also offered valuable opportunities for carers to connect with one another, helping reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation that can often be experienced in a caring role.
