Be Well Arklow
As-part of the Youth Mental Health Week, launched in the Arklow Bay Hotel on Monday 10th of October, we hosted the launch of Be Well Week - this is the official opening week!
We had a large number of young people join us in the Vault Youth Centre from 7-10 for information about Be Well with guest speakers, live music and more!
Among those in attendance was our newest Wicklow TD, Sinn Féin's John Brady.
We hope to see you all the the many events planned for the week ahead.
