As part of Menโ€™s Health Week, participants from PARS enjoyed a memorable day out in Castlewellan, including a guided tour of the historic Annesley Walled Garden and a relaxing walk around the lake. ๐ŸŒฟ

The outing provided a great opportunity for the group to get active, enjoy the outdoors, learn about the gardenโ€™s rich history and spend time together in a positive and welcoming environment. ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธ

The visit finished with tea and coffee, giving everyone the chance to relax and reflect on an enjoyable day. During Menโ€™s Health Week, activities like this help shine a spotlight on the importance of social connection, physical activity and wellbeing for men of all ages.
