Mae Murray Foundation – Resource Library

**NEW PROJECT**

The Resource Library is a free resource for all members, where you can borrow adapted equipment.
You may want to borrow equipment for a range of reasons:
• To trial expensive equipment that you are considering purchasing to ensure it is right for you.
• To borrow equipment for a specific need, for example, to help you with travel on a holiday.
• To get active and enjoy outdoor spaces.
• To have move opportunities to play and learn new skills.

Click on the link below for more information on this service and to see what equipment is available to loan.

Please note: this service is volunteer led and therefore it may take a little longer for us to get back to you. Please allow 7 days response time. If you have an urgent request, contact our office on 03006001166.

Thanks to Community Foundation for Northern Ireland and The Department of Health Carer Fund for funding this project for the next 2 years.

Southern Area LPG FYI – 14th October 2021

Welcome to the 69th edition of our information bulletin, ‘FYI’ (For Your Information).

FYI Issue 69 – 14 October 2021

We want to ensure that the valuable information included in our fortnightly newsletter reaches the people who need it most and so, this autumn, we are asking all of our Locality Planning Group members to make a conscious effort to forward share ‘FYI’ with parents, carers and young people with whom they work, live or know.

Please e-mail, post on Facebook, tweet, print out and even just tell people about ‘FYI’ and point anyone interested in being added to the ‘FYI’ circulation list in our direction.

Thanks, in advance, for your support.
