Love Your Heart 2026 Highlights

St. Andrew’s brought back Love Your Heart, Love Your Health, Love Yourself for another year this past week - a relaxing, feel-good day dedicated to wellbeing, just in time for Valentine’s Day 💖

The centre was a buzz with people catching up over a cuppa alongside treating themselves to a little pampering with facials, Sound Baths, Nail Glam, Crafting and a range of holistic therapies designed to help them unwind and reset. A big well done to Debbie for coordinating the booking system to ensure everyone got their slice of time to relax.

A big thanks to everyone who were at information stands, including Social Prescribing, HSE Smoking Cessation and others.

Amongst the many holistic taster sessions, we had Ann doing Healthy Smoothie and Heart Happy Snacks Demonstrations in the Family Centre which went down a treat! We also had a First Aid Mental talk facilitated by Kieran Doyle which participants were delighted with.

We had the Irish Heart Foundation mobile unit onsite with Peter (pictured above) offering free blood pressure checks. We also had the Hidden hearing mobile unit onsite providing free hearing checks on the day. While waiting for their sessions to start, we had people catching up over a cuppa and a chat in the Dining Room which was a welcome cover from the rain.

This event is always one of the most relaxing days of the year and a lovely opportunity to reconnect with the community after the winter months.
