Want to start exercising? Want to feel fitter & have more energy? Sligo Sport and Recreation Partnership are delighted to pilot a Men on the Move Programme reaching all parts of Sligo, with online programmes based in the North Sligo, South Sligo, East Sligo and West Sligo, in conjunction with Sport Ireland, Health Service Executive and Sligo GAA’s Health and Well-being Committee. The Men on the Move Programme encourages men over the age of 35 years to get more active, have fun and improve your fitness levels through twice weekly activity online sessions. The 6 week programme offers men the chance to learn and take part in safe, effective exercises tailored to suit their needs, led by a supportive and encouraging SSRP instructor over zoom. No equipment is required, all that is needed is a safe and secure space.

The emphasis of the programme is on creating awareness and understanding of the importance of physical activity and the health benefits for not only physical health, but for mental health and well-being as well. SSRP is delighted to join forces with the Sligo GAA Health and Well-Being Committee to promote the programme with local clubs and target men in the community, so why not join in and book now as limited places apply.
