A collaborative effort between Heartbeat Killarney Kerry, HSE Community Work Department and the Killarney Outlet Centre will bring a unique ‘Heart, Health and Wellness Day’ to the community on September 20.

The event will feature over 20 information stands from 11 am to 2:30 pm, offering free resources from the HSE and various national groups.
This comprehensive gathering promises valuable information not seen before.
Four informative talks will also be held throughout the day, featuring a cardiologist, an adult speech and language therapist, a dietician and nutritionist, and a senior physiotherapist.
Each professional will present a short talk on their respective area of expertise. Space for the talks is limited to 40 attendees, with free tickets available on the day only.
The meeting point for talks will be near the escalator leading to O'Brien’s Café and volunteers will be present to direct attendees to the meeting room.
Heartbeat Killarney Kerry will have a dedicated stand at the event.
Visitors can collect free tickets to the talks, sign up for newsletters, and browse informative booklets.
Nurse Anna will also be available from 11am to 1pm to provide blood pressure and pulse checks, along with lifestyle advice.
“The driving force behind this initiative is to empower attendees with knowledge about the vast array of free and affordable health and wellness services available in County Kerry. Organizers believe that knowledge is power and aim to equip the community to make informed decisions regarding their health,” said Heartbeat Killarney chairman Billy O’Sullivan.
The organizers express their sincere gratitude to Paul Sherry of the Killarney Outlet Centre for invaluable support and collaboration.
This generosity extends beyond the Heart, Health and Wellness Day, and includes the ongoing Rid and Bid fundraising event in October.
The event details are also listed on the Heartbeat Killarney Kerry website (www.kerryhearts.ie) under the ‘Event’ section.
Join the Heart, Health and Wellness Day on September 20 and empower yourself with valuable health knowledge.
