Health & Wellbeing
The last number of months have been tough on everyone. Pretty ‘n’ Pink have continued to support our patients during these challenging times. However, we are aware that patients and their families have not been able to avail of the other support services we provide.
As we remain closed, we cannot provide close contact services and we are very much aware that so many people are feeling lonely and struggling at this time. Therefore, we wanted to create an enjoyable way of looking after everyone’s Health & Wellbeing and bring people together.
Our Health & Wellbeing Programme will run over 6 weeks, and it is not restricted to those who use our services. We want families, friends and those who care for patients getting involved. These events will take place via Zoom and everyone is welcome to get involved and have some fun. If you know someone who has been shielding or isolating alone, reach out and ask them to get involved with you and it can be something you can look forward to over the next 6 weeks.
