The Mournes District Electoral Area (DEA) Forum, supported Kittys Road Community Association to host a Coffee and Connect Event recently.
The event provided a platform for community members to come together and engage in meaningful conversations while creating opportunities for individuals to seek support, share their experiences and forge new friendships.
A number of agencies were on hand to provide information about the various services and support which they offer to the community and included Kilkeel Development Association, Clanrye, Bolster, ADHD Newcastle, Hillside Men’s Shed, Newry Street Unite, Kingdom Men’s Shed, Policing and Community Safety Partnerships (PCSP), Community Advice, Volunteer Now, First Responders, Children’s Cancer Fund, Kingdom Youth Club and P.I.P.S
Newry, Mourne and Down District Council Chairperson Councillor Valerie Harte said, “Events such as these provide significant benefits for community members. They are an opportunity for residents to come together to enjoy the companionship of others, fostering a sense of belonging and inclusivity.
“It is heartening to see partnership working from various agencies delivering such enjoyable events which improve not only mental but physical health outcomes for our residents.”
