The GAA are participating in the Community Heart Program to assist in raising the funds required to enable the placement and upgrade of existing AED's, or automated external defibrillators, in every Club. What is an AED? An AED is used to help those experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. It is a sophisticated, portable, easy to use medical device that can analyse the heart’s rhythm and, if necessary, deliver an electronic shock, or defibrillation, to help the heart re-establish an effective heart rhythm.

SunSmart:

Those who pursue outdoor sport and leisure are a high risk group for the development of skin cancer, as they spend long periods of time outdoors. Both occasional and often sun exposure can be harmful. Exposure causing sunburn is the most damaging but frequent non burning exposures also significantly increase the risk of skin cancer. This risk can be reduced by following the SunSmart steps to protect the skin.

The Healthy Ireland SunSmart programme and the Irish Cancer Prevention Network are engaging with sports bodies and organisations to raise awareness of the risks of skin cancer and the simple SunSmart behaviours that can protect your skin. See attached document for further details and information which you can use to share across your networks.

Men's Health Week is an opportunity to focus on the wellbeing of men and boys and the key theme in 2021 is encouraging everyone to begin the process of 'MAKING THE CONNECTIONS' and to 'CHECK IN, CHECK UP, CHECK IT OUT'.  This call to action speaks to the key priority following the impact of COVID-19 and the need for us all to rebuild and nourish our networks and support structures.

Dermot Earley Youth Leadership Initiative:

The Expression of interest for DEYLI 2021-2022 is now open. The ideal is that your club take the DEYLI  initiative on board and recruit young people to get involved in the programme. We ask clubs to have a minimum of two DEYLI facilitators. Facilitator training is delivered by Foróige and brings you through the running of the programme within your club. The running period for a club tends to be the school year,  I have attached some FAQ’s regarding the programme. Kevin Spain a former DEYLI tutor hosted an excellent webinar last week that went through all the details regarding DEYLI. Click HERE to re-watch the webinar. It's a great initiative and a really good opportunity for that age group to get some valuable skills and a significant qualification. Blánaid will be happy to answer any questions you have on the programme on 01 819 2387.
