SKF and Smiths of Drogheda are Teaming up together this November to take on MOVEMBER for two local charities - The Mens support group at GK Cancer Support and Drogheda & North East Samaritans.

Our campaign hopes to raise awareness and fundraise for mens health problems particularly prostrate/testicular cancer, mental illness and su***de. Men are less likely to talk about their feelings or seek professional help. We hope to encourage males to become more proactive when it comes to their health and well-being.

Join the SKF/Smiths Team in growing a moustache to raise awareness and fundraise for Mens Health Drogheda 👨🏻

*IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL MEMBERS - 21/10/2020

I can’t believe I am writing this 7 months since we first closed in March but unfortunately we have no other choice but to shut our doors once again for the next 6 weeks following on from the latest government guidelines 😭

This will be tough time for the SKF Team and members no doubt, however we will be OK and back stronger than ever. Thank you all for your amazing support, particularly over the last couple of months. The gym and camaraderie in SKF has gone from strength to strength. Let’s stay positive, keep in touch and most importantly stay active during this time. We as a team will do what we can to help over the next few weeks 💪💙

During this time members will be able to borrow gym equipment and have access to our home based workouts. Please keep an eye on the members page for more details.

It obviously doesn’t sit well with us that gyms are deemed as non essential services. A place where people can remain physically active? Being physically active is the NO. 1 thing you can do for your health. The benefits have been well documented for its prevention and protection of numerous diseases including heart disease and cancer, two of of the leading causes of death worldwide. Its protective effect on our immune system to which is crucial to respond adequately to the threat of COVID-19. Not to mention the abundance of evidence based research recognising its benefits for depression, anxiety and many other mental health issues. In fact, NOT reaching the National recommended Physical activity guidelines is the 4th leading risk factor for death worldwide. “If exercise could be packaged in a pill, it would be the single most widely prescribed and beneficial medicine in the nation.” Essential???? 💯 % ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. Once the appropriate safety procedures outlined by the Government can be strictly adhered to, gyms should remain open. We have made considerable investments and efforts into the gym over the last few weeks which allowed each member to workout safely within their own individual bay with their own equipment.

We hope this decision is overturned and we can get back ASAP.

Stay Safe 💙💪

I can’t begin to express how proud I am of the SKF members today. For the last 3 years in particular, we have had a tremendous turnout for the Drogheda 10K, flooding the streets of Drogheda in a sea of Blue 💙or last year, pink💕🌈. We hadn’t expected that this year we would not get the opportunity to get out there again and enjoy the event of the year and wear those t-shirts with pride. It is so overwhelming to see the support and generosity of our SKF community who came together (apart) yesterday & participated in our very 1st (and hopefully last 🤞🏻🤞🏻)Virtual 10K. We managed to raise nearly 4,000 euro for the Intensive Care Unit in Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital Drogheda, which as we know will be so gratefully received in these worrying times, absolutely incredible. We saw members achieving PB’s 🥇, members running their very 1st 10K 🤩, members stationary cycling 🚴‍♂️ , members going beyond the distance 💯 & families walking the distance together👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 - Everyone out for the one cause and everyone part of the SKF Community ! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💙💙You have absolutely outdone yourselves. Well done to each and every one of you! Lost for words… 💙💙💙

The Drogheda 10k has always been a highlight of the year for SKF. This year it’s unfortunate that we can’t partake as a group 😢 However, on Sunday 3rd May we are asking all our members to run/walk in our very 1st virtual 10k in aid of Lourdes Hospital Intensive Care Unit (Keeping within your 2k radius).

Get your SKF T-shirt on( if you have one), Share a pic of yourself, your route & your time (no pressure!! 🙈👊🏻) with the hashtag to social media and donate through the SKF go fund me page for this amazing cause!

*IMPORTANT UPDATED NOTICE FOR ALL MEMBERS - 15/03/2020*

It brings me great sadness to write this post but having taken everything into consideration and in light of how rapidly COVID19 is spreading we feel the best & most responsible action at this time would be to CLOSE the gym for the coming weeks
😭

The Health, Safety and Wellbeing of our SKF members and their families are our main priority & despite an attempt to put measures in place to protect our members we feel it may not be enough.

Thank you to everyone for their positivity and efforts so far. We’ve shown great camaraderie in our efforts to get through this difficult time safely. The next step is to stay apart so we can continue our fitness journeys in the future, stronger than ever. 💪🏻💙

We will be posting daily home WODs to the members page to keep you all going over the coming weeks.

See you all Very Soon 🙏🏻
